Intro: Em
Em C Em C
Again the burden of losing rests upon my shoulders
Em C Em C
And its weight seems unbearable
Em C
Your tomb is where your heart is,
Em C
I should have told her
Em C Em
But within me hid a secret so terrible
Am Em
To cry is to know that you're alive
Am Em
But my river of tears has run dry
Am Em
I never wanted to fool you, no
D
But a cold heart is a dead heart
C
And it feels like I've been buried alive by love
C
If I should die before I wake
Em D
Pray no one my soul to take
C D
If I wake before I die,
Em D
Rescue me with your smile (darlin')
C
If I should die before I wake
Em D
There ain't no one my soul to take
C D
If I wake before I die,
Em
Rescue me with your smile
Em C Em C
The kiss of vanity blessed me with a spiritual murder
Em C Em C
And fed the gods of war insatiable
Em C
Your home is where the dark is
Em C
I should have told her
Em C Em
Embrace the fire indestructible
Am Em
To die is to know that you're alive
Am Em
But my river of blood won't run dry
Am Em
I never wanted to lose you, no
D
But a cold heart is a dead heart
C
And it feels like I've been buried alive by love
