Dm / / / | Dm / Dm add9 / | x2

Dm

were you surprised that we never spoke?

Dm add9

then in the still of the night , when nothing stirs

Dm

i woke and i gathered up some clothes .

Dm add9

i never planned on this but its the way it goes

Dm

and now it all seems so familiar like pages turned on calendars

Dm add9

we get the same twelve months to fxxk things up , year after year

Dm

and i can’t believe how down i Am like the well i’m being lowered in ,

Dm add9 Dm

now water stops , the bucket drops us farther and farther down .

B7 G B5 7

well i guess that you never knew me , or at least not well enough .

Dm Dm add9

so i fill my gut with dark red wine until my brain shuts off and my eyes go blind .

Dm

you won’t see me there in that thick black air .

Dm add9

yeah , i’ll finally make something disappear .

B7

because i’ve been practicing disappearing

G B5 7

and i think that i’ve got it down

Dm

but now there is no sun just a cellar

Dm add9

nowhere is sky its just that black , black dirt yeah .

Dm

but now there is no sun just a cellar

Dm add9

nowhere is sky its just that black , black , black , black

Dm

dirt . expanding outwards just echoes for answers

Dm add9

not that it matters if its back or its forwards .

Dm Dm add9

unhappy lovers with baskets of flowers

Dm

use them as markers

Dm add9 Dm Dm add9 Dm

the place where your bed once stood a time when it still felt good .

B7

but you’ll get that feeling back

G B5 7

yeah , you just need some time to think

Dm

and to add up the hell , get it straight in your mind

but to calculate cost , that may take some time

B7

but i’m sure you’ll get to feeling better

G B5 7

yeah , i just need some time to drink

Dm

so i’ll fill my gut with that blood red wine

Dm add9

until my insides swim and my veins unwind .

Dm

i’ll be lying there in that hot white air once

Dm add9 Dm ~end on Dm

that something’s gone it might never reappear .
