Deer Tick - Standing At The Threshold

standing at the threshold
Am
you and me created something special
Em
you and me always standing at the threshold
Am
forgive me , i’ve created a monster
Em
the police said that they cannot help your daughter

C Am
sometimes it takes a tough/strong man to hide
Em
sing it soft just like a lullaby

F G
i’ll fall apart from the inside and die

Am
kept my faith from the day that you left
Em
with a big old hallelujah carved into my chest
Am
you smothered me in images of death
Em
don’t play around now , take my life instead

C Am
i don’t doubt that everything is what you gave me
F G
but i’ve gotta be frank , and baby
C , Am , F , G
it just wasn’t enough

Am , Em
