Verse: 

    F          C     G            G 
 We sleep in a heap on the floor 
     F          C      G       G 
 Our bodies are declaring war 
          F    C       G           G 
 Keep our eyes peeled on the door 
        F    C  G  G 
 on the door 
  
    F       C            G     G 
 My body it lies like an arch 
        F           C            G     G 
 Like a bridge over yours in the dark 
         F              C       G 
 And our hands they are tangled in two 
         G          F  C   G  G 
 They're tangled into one 
  


       F          C    G     G 
 And I lie like a dead deer 
         F           C G     G 
 And I'm down in the cedars 
         F                C        G      G 
 And you lie through your clenched teeth 
           F           C   G   
 With your maps, you retreater 
   C   F    F  F  F 
 retreater 


Verse: 

 F           C  G           G 
 And we talk      through a mail truck 
         F    C  G        G 
 That is lost      in our bad luck 
         F    C  G        G 
 And you talk      like a factory 
 F                 C            G   G  G  G 
 Blowing smoke and interrupting me 

Bridge: 

        Am            Em  Em  Em 
 Well I guess this is it 
    Am        Em   Em  Em 
 We turn into dust 
       Am             Em   Em  Em  
 Those things that we did 
             Am       Em    Em  Em 
 Well we can never go back 
          Am        Em     Em  Em 
 Guess we fade into black 


       F                C G    G 
 And I know that you're dying 
        F               C G    G 
 By the way that you're lying 
         F            C    G     G 
 And you stand like a dead tree 
           F              C  G 
 With your leaves falling on me 
         C  F   F 
 falling on me 
        C   G          C   F   F 
 Took a backseat to an old me 
        C    G               C    F   F 
 Took a deep breath when you told me 
            C      G           C    F   F 
 That you'd change you just to hold me  
            C      G           C    F   F 
 That you'd change you just to hold me  
            C      G           C    F   F  F  F 
 That you'd change you just to hold me
