[(intro ]4x) E B C#m A
C#m B A E
You missed the winter and it followed you back home
C#m B A E
Where sun kissed the crimson footsteps in the melting snow
B A
We are doing our best to disown the golden mean
B A
By these acts of cruelty in the name of beauty to be free
E B C#m A
The acoustic funeral for love in limbo
E B A
We're dancing with tags on our toes
E B C#m A
I saved my last breath for your window
E B A
To write you this song
E B A
For the acoustic funeral
C#m B A E
On the verge of a vow to kill all reason locking that door
C#m B A E
To a nightmare within a nightmare we are bound to adore
B A
Let the pleasure in the shape of a heart lie to me
B A
And finally confirm all fears to be so real
NC
Be so real
E B C#m A
The acoustic funeral for love in limbo
E B A
We're dancing with tags on our toes
E B C#m A
I saved my last breath for your window
E B A
To write you this song
E B A
For the acoustic funeral
C#m B A
Underneath the ice so thin I am turning blue
C#m B A
The one last thing I know to be real is the shadow of you
B E
Killing love with a kiss
(solo)
E B C#m A
The acoustic funeral for love in limbo
E B A
We're dancing with tags on our toes
E B C#m A
I saved my last breath for your window
E B A
To write you this song
E B C#m A
The acoustic funeral for love in limbo
E B A
We're dancing with tags on our toes
E B C#m A
I saved my last breath for your window

Lest we have to fall
