B
Lay my bones
F#
At the feet of the ministry
E
I need the guilt and the company
F#
I need the chance to be judged
And then long forgotten
B
Lately I just can't shake it
F#
I count the days in seconds and minutes
E F#
Hours and hours are subtle as shards of glass
In the skin
G#m
So lay with me
E
I could use the company
You could help me ease
B
These bones are like maps and keys
F#
Where they took their hits, and they felt those teeth
G#m
There's a story hidden underneath
E F#
If you dig in deep, will you find relief?
B
For these bones shudder all night long
F#
The hammer drops, another scar
G#m
For these bones but I know
E F#
They're only my second home
B F#
Naked and under the cover of night
E
It's just a matter of time 'til I'm
F#
Counted and measured and filed
And then long forgotten
B
Forgive my manner of speaking
F#
I know it's quick, but the clock is still ticking
E F#
And I've got a few words left burning holes on my tongue
I've been saving them
G#m
So lay with me
E
I could use the company
You could help me ease
B
These bones are like maps and keys
F#
Where they took their hits, and they felt those teeth
G#m
There's a story hidden underneath
E F#
If you dig in deep, will you find relief?
B
For these bones shudder all night long
F#
The hammer drops, another scar
G#m
For these bones but I know
E F#
They're only my second home
G#m F#
No you won't go down alone
E F#
No you won't go down alone
G#m F#
No you won't go down alone
E
No you won't go down alone
G#m
So lay with me
E
I could use the company
You could help me ease
B
These bones are like maps and keys
F#
Where they took their hits, and they felt those teeth

There's a story hidden underneath

For these bones shudder all night long
F#
The hammer drops, another scar
G#m
For these bones but I know
E F#
They're only my second home
B
For these bones
'Cause I know
F# B
That you won't go down alone
