Bridge:

E                 A             B5           C#5
December’s got me backed into a corner again
                  F#5
My ears are back, my teeth are showing
E                                A         B5                   C#5
I'm combing through the wreckage trying to find where I've been
                          F#5
I still get phantom pains but from a safer distance

Or strum the chords

A5                       B5
I'll be your dead bird, you'll be my bloodhound
E
You're just doing what you're told

Pick my body off the ground
A5
I'll be your dead bird
B5
Hanging from your mouth
E
You're doing like you're told

Gonna make your master proud
A5
It's good to know
B5
I didn’t die for nothing

Outro:

E                 A             B5           C#5
December’s got me backed into a corner again

My ears are back, my teeth are showing

I still get phantom pains but I didn't die for nothing.
