verse 1:
C Em7
Love was kind, for a time
G F C
Now just aches, and it makes me blind
C Em7
This mirrors holds my eyes too bright
G F C
That I can't see the others in my life
C Em7
We too young and heads too strong
G F C
To bear the weight of these lover's eyes
C Em7
Cuz I feel numb beneath your tongue
G F C
Beneath the curse of these lover's eyes.
F C G C
But do not ask the price I pay, I must live with my quiet rage
F C G C
Tame the ghosts in my head that run wild and wish me dead
F C
Should you shake my ash to the wind
G C
Lord forget all of my sins
F C G C
Oh let me die where I lie beneath the curse of my lover's eyes
Break 3x: C F
verse 2:
C Em7
Cuz there's no drink or drug I've tried
G F C
To rid the curse of these lover's eyes
C Em7
And I feel numb beneath your tongue
G F C
Your strength just makes me... feel less strong
F C G C
But do not ask the price I pay, I must live with my quiet rage
F C G C
Tame the ghosts in my head that run wild and wish me dead

Should you shake my ash to the wind

Oh let me die where I lie beneath the curse of my lover's eyes
