dark hand over my heart

G Bm Em F
becky loved me and i let her
G Bm Em F
wish i could have loved her better
G Em D# A# C
on the day we pulled apart she primed a time – bomb in my heart
G Bm Em F
now there’s a shadow hiding
G Bm Em F
now there’s a horseman riding
G Em D# A#
lover of all broken things , standing waiting in the wings

F G# F G#
sometimes i wonder why i love and let it die
F G# G F
can’t give , can’t live just to hold back , hold back

chorus :
D# Dm D# Dm
there’s a dark hand , there’s a dark hand
D# Dm G#
there’s a dark hand over my heart ( repeat )

you call me fraud and faker
you call me user , taker
you say i throw you scraps , prove my strength by holding back
but i shine my honour brightly
swear my allegiance nightly
but through my hands it slips , the same old demons paint their lips

sometimes i wonder why . . .
