E             D 
The sky looks pissed 
C#m            C 
The wind talks back 
   E         E/D#     C#m   B 
My bones are shifting in my skin 
     A       B         E 
When you, my love, are gone 

E              D 
My room seems wrong 
C#m           C 
The bed won't fit 
E          E/D#      C#m    B 
I cannot seem to operate 
    A        B          E 
When you, my love, are gone 

   A              B 
So glide away and so be healed 
    E       E/D#   C#m     B 
And promise not to promise anymore 
    A            B 
And if you come around again 
     E      E/D#       C#m    B 
Then I will take, then I will take 
    A          B       E 
The chain from off the door
