The Art Of Anesthesia Ukulele by Saywecanfly

Chords with lyrics

Tuning: G C E A (G C E A)

Key: C

Difficulty: Novice

Intro:
Am C F
Am C F

Verse:
Am               C
  Sometimes I think about who I should believe
  F
The people who are dead or the people who are free
Am                C
  Sometimes I hear them as they whisper to me
 F
I try to stay awake so I won't die in my sleep

Am              C
  And I was quick to take a second look through
  F
The window on the door of the operating room
     Am      C
And the adrenaline, it threw my eyes
    F
To the table on the floor where the patients lie

 Am         C
I saw his face and I could not speak
    F
As the anesthetic kissed his cheek
     Am         C
I felt my lips go cold and my limbs go weak
      F                      Am C  F
Because the body on the table where the patients die was me
    Am C  F
It was me

Chorus:
Am       G   F
Give me back my oxygen mask ('Cause I don't want to)
Am          Em  F
Feel the walls of my heart collapse (So put me under)
Am       G      F
I would sooner die on this table (Than face what)
Am      Em    F
Causes me to be so unstable

Verse:
Am              C
  There was a lie between my demons and me
   F
And a body made of paper in the passenger seat
   Am        C
As I opened my eyes, I could not see
      F*
I felt the stitches come loose and the blood run free

Am           C
  And as my thoughts began to shake
      F
I felt the hand of the darkness kiss my face
       Am          C
And then the devil woke up and he grabbed my throat
       F
He pulled me down to the place where the silence grows

  Am        C
He looked at me with hollow eyes
    F
And he whispered my name as the flowers died
     Am         C
I felt my heart go cold as I sank between
  F                    Am C  F
The ocean I am and the river I'm meant to be
       Am C  F
I'm meant to be

Chorus:
Am       G   F
Give me back my oxygen mask ('Cause I don't want to)
Am          Em  F
Feel the walls of my heart collapse (So put me under)
Am       G      F
I would sooner die on this table (Than face what)
Am      Em    F
Causes me to be so unstable
Am      Em    F
Causes me to be so unstable
Am      Em    F
Causes me to be so unstable

Bridge:
C             Am
  Now I'm standing by the window on a Sunday
   Dm             F      G
And I can't quite recall Why I cannot move at all
C             Am
  And I feel so tired and wounded Like the stitches on my
Dm              F      G
Soul came apart I'm standing here in the dark
   C                   Am
Well, maybe it's from the drinks we had last night, but good god,
            Dm               F  G
I love those friends of mine, the best that alcohol can buy
  C                        Am
Or maybe it's from the lack of sleep, but all those secrets I've kept
             Dm
Trying to be so sweet to you, it's dark, my dear
       F         G
But it got me through, it got me through

Chorus:
Am       G   F
Give me back my oxygen mask ('Cause I don't want to)
Am          G   F
Feel the walls of my heart collapse (So put me under)
Am       G      F
I would sooner die on this table (Than face what)
Am      G   F
Causes me to be so unstable]

Outro:
Am              C
 Sometimes I wonder if I'm only a ghost
    F
Wearing human skin I never chose
 Am         C
I listen to the devil as he spoke
      F
Because he tempted me with a beautiful rose
