C#m Bm C
All mine, when the body wakes up
C#m C Bm
All mine, when the body falls down
Bm Am A#m
You won't sleep when you lie with me
Bm C
Knuckle and bone come rattle at the window
C#m Bm C
All mine, gall and liver
C#m C Bm
All mine, bony rib and marrow
Bm Am A#m
All the dreams you long to keep
Bm C
Were part of the deal when you came to borrow
F#
The collector is collecting
Em
And delivering to me
F#
Oh, you think we've got it all
Em F#
But there's no guarantee
Bm Am A#m
All mine,
Bm C C#m
all mine
(Verse & Chorus 2 same as before)
C#m Bm C
All mine, the song your mother wrote you
All mine, everything of value
All hope you lay aside
Saved for the day no hope lies in you
All mine, joy and libido
Mine mine, plans for tomorrow
The heart you smuggled away
That beat so fast when we did our little handshake
The collector is collecting
And delivering to me
Oh, you think we've got it all
But there's no guarantee
All mine, all mine
(Guitar solo)
C#m
You won't sleep when you lie with me
C
Body will be gone but the mind won't follow
Bm
This heart you long to keep
Knuckle and bone come rattle at the window
