Verse 1:

Am
All I'm looking for
Am7\G
Is a little bit more rope

To wrap around my throat

I'm in trouble
I'm in trouble

Am
And all I'm gasping for
Am7\G
Is one last breath of hope
F
To hear the hearts I broke
F
I'm in trouble
I'm in trouble

Am                        Am7\G
When you lay my body down
   F
When you throw me in the ground

Don't be sorry
Am                        Am7\G
When you lay my body down
   F
When you throw me in the ground

Am
Save your prayers
Am7\G                 Em                      F
Don't shed a tear, don't shed a tear for me
Am
Save your prayers
Am7\G                 Em                      F
Don't shed a tear, don't shed a tear for me
C
Turn your heart
Am
To the trail
   Am7\G            Em
Of souls behind me
Am
Save your prayers
Am7\G                Em                       F
Don't shed a tear, don't shed a tear for me

Chorus:
Am
All the fearful eyes
Am7\G
Stay burned upon my mind
F
The gift they left behind
F
I'm all troubles

I'm all troubles

Am
Still they find the words
Am7\G
Ring louder than my thoughts
F
Lay heavy as a curse
F
I'm in trouble

I'm in trouble

Verse 2:
Am                       Am7\G
When you lay my body down

When you lay my body down
F
When I'm buried in the ground
