vampire suicide

verse 1
G Em
my father is a watching under me
G Em
he’s been watching for eternity
G Em
and i’ve done him proud but i’m moving on
G Em
gonna take my chances in the morning sun

chorus
G
and let it shine and shine
Em
shine on me
G
let it shine and shine
Em
shine on me
G
i’ll let the light shine
Em
shine on me
G Em
let it shine and shine on me

verse 2
i climbed my deepest sadness i sank down in my darkest fear
i swam through the abyss and i Am standing right here
i took a wandering path around that straight and narrow trail
and i carved my initials in a tree with three nails

verse 3
well i showed my scars to a woman on the street
yeah i swallowed my pride when there was nothing else to eat
i’ll shake the hand of a stranger when the morning comes to greet
oh i’ll stand in the dawn and let it be my defeat
