Intro- Am
Am C Am C
lately I've been writing letters to everyone
Am C
trying to explain away my actions
Am C
and reactions to everything while I used to
Am C Am C
romanticize my drunkenness now my bottle has run dry
Am C Am C
the river has bled itself into the deep black ink in my pen
Am C Am C
and the bloody ink in my veins could run stone cold like
Am C Am C
a freshly fallen snow I’ve been glowing in the dark
Am C
sleeping in the park
Am C Am C Am
this town will tear you apart if you let burn it self down
C Am C Am
justify rationalize its been weeks but its still weak
C Am
the needle scratches holes in records
C Am C Am C
the screech the rush it brings you to your knees
Am C Am
a cigarette was smoking bad cause I pressed it
C Am
to my lips they were hungry for your hips
C Am C Am C
and impolite sex sounds nice turn off all the lights
Am C Am
and don’t forget the waltz in the dark
C Am C
these are the forms that make us human
Am C
in three four time
Am C
well I sat on the floor and I
Am C
opened up the book
Am C Am C
the autobiography of a man dressed in black
Am C
and the story that he told
Am C Am
of crawling into caves dark with drugs
C Am C
and lost loves and not wanting to come back
Am C
it was the lord he said
Am C
came to him and led him
Am C
back to the light
Am C Am C
yeah the lord yeah the lord
Am C
who the fuck is the lord
Am C Am C
he said that his cave was darker than a grave
Am C Am C
and as I'm digging it I don’t doubt it
Am C Am C
but the lord he said he came to him
Am C Am C
and led him back to the light
Am C
yeah the lord yeah the lord
Am C Am C Am C Am C Am C Am
