Intro: Dm (x4)
verse 1
Dm F Am C
Shi-ver-ing, I'm looking in at
Gm F C
People that I call my friends
Dm F Am C
Just a sil-hou-ette, with a cigarette, and
Gm F A
No idea who I am
[Refrão] A#
There were songs, in these eyes
Dm F A F
Now they're gone, if only I had held the light in
F G A#
Ahh, Oh Oh Oh
verse 2
Dm F Am C
Flesh and teeth, they are smiling and so
Gm F A
Happy to burn through their time
Dm F G
And I don't know when
Am A
But I lost the will to save her mind
Bridge
Dm F Am C
Now they're all, stumbling to some other house
A# F C
Though I've tried, I can't find, any interest now
Dm F Am C
It takes, the guilt of just a small mistake
A# F C Dm
To puncture the joy so it's poisoned by doubt, by doubt
Break
Dm F Dm A# Dm
Ahh, Ohh, Ohh, Ohh, Ohh Ohh Ohh
verse 3
Dm F
I just wanted to face
Dm F A#
The expanse but those dead ends have come to haunt me
Dm
I have tried to understand
F A#
How I should operate this body
Dm
But I was wrong
F A#
If only I had held the light in
A Dm
The darkness would be gone
