verse 1
C
I wake up with the same pain every night
Am F C G
Digging a hatchet into my left side
C
Clearing my chest of something to burn
Am F C G F
Ash for a decorative urn you keep in your mantelpiece;
F C
Like a trophy for everything
C Em C Em
That withers eventually
Bridge
Am G C F
Call me a coward, but I'm too scared to leave
Am G C F
'cause I want you to be the last thing I see, oh come on
Am G C F
Call me a coward, but I'm too scared to leave
Am G C F
Watched you pouring lighter fluid out onto the leaves
C C
And I would've loved you with the dying fire
Em
Let you smother me down to the embers
Am F C G F
Frostbite turning my limbs as black as cinder of funeral pyre
C
And I would have stayed if you asked me to
Em
Stood outside till my lips turn blue
Em
I wouldn't have blamed you
Am F C G F
For leaving me there on the porch while you drank gasoline
F
'cause it's what you needed so bad
Outro
C
And it's true
Em Am F C G F
It's nothing that we could do
