C                         G
Things are falling down on me 
C                    G
Heavy things I could not see 
| C G | C G | 
C                    G
When I finally came around 
C                       G
Something small would pin me down 
| C G | C G | 
F                 G (hold)
When I try to step aside 
I move to where they'd hoped I'd be 
| C G | C G |  

F                  C
Vanessa calls me on the phone 
F                  C
Reminding me I'm not alone 
F                   C
I fuss and quake and cavitate 
                     G
I try to speak and turn to stone 
 
F                    C
Tilly reaches through my vest 
F                     C
To do the thing that she does best 
F                  C
She probes and tears my ventricles 
                  G
Steals my one remaining breath 
 
| C G | C G | 

F                      C
Stumbling as I fall from Grace 
F                  C
She needs my vision to replace 
F                     C
Her ailing sight throughout the night 
                    G
Leaving two holes in my face  

F                    C
Mary was a friend I'd say 
F               C
'til one summer day 
F                  C
She borrowed everything I owned 
                 G
And then simply ran away,
