VERSE:
G C
keep climbing into my head without knockin'
C G
and you fix yourself there like a map pin
G C
on this ghost of this street where i'm livin'
C G
i'm in a chrysalis and i'm snowed in
[Refrão]
Em C G
darling, darling that dam's gonna give
Em C G
it's inevitable the way that you live
Em C G
bottles in brown paper and a mouth that slurs
C G
all the shit that it stirs
C G
let that dogwood blossom
C G
there'll be hell to pay in heaven
Em C G
for you take every stray home
VERSE:
G C
what happens when you're into deep to break
C G
loneliness keeps you constantly awake
G C
what happens when the passage of time appears
C G
you see yourself as a child and it brings you to tears
G C
you say that you're troubled and you always have been
C G
uncomfortable in your own skin
G C
so you contemplate the riverbed
C G
turn off the dark thoughts in your head
[Refrão]Em C G
darling, darling that dam's gonna give
Em C G
it's inevitable the way that you live
Em C G
bottles in brown paper and a mouth that slurs
C G
all the shit that it stirs

let that dogwood blossom
C G
there'll be hell to pay in heaven
Em C G
for you take every stray home
