Dm F A X2
[Verse 1]
Dm
It's time to lay your head my dear
F
It's time to go to sleep
A
Your minds been racin' round these problems
That are now dried concrete
Dm
I'll put your favorite record on
F
I'll put it on repeat
A
You'll dream of translucent worries
And know everything will be okay
Dm
Think back, thinnk back to the days
F
We were so young, so warm, so safe
A
Swaddled up in some dirty blanket
Bleedin' on the beach
Dm
Now the blood stains
F
Are all that remain to remind us
A
There once was a force that did bind us
And if it wasn't for the lingering odor
Of the corpse we'd drift apart
[Chorus]
Bb F
So set it all to flame
Dm
And let the ashes burn
A
Beneath my calloused feet
Bb
This flesh and bone
F
Have become my only company
A
A constant hold on the trigger
To sustain some sanity
[Verse 2]
Dm F A X2
Dm
Run run run run faster baby
F
Faster now be sure to leave me
A
Waging battles in my head
Of demons, misery, regret
Dm
Herded by a broken compass
F
Stumbling round with selfish purpose
A
This love affair with grim
Has only lead me further from death
Dm
I fucking hate those days
F
When I can feel so clearly
That the tethers fraying
A
And my only comfort is threatening
To tear me limb from limb
Dm
But when the cackle of regret so shrill
F
Keeps growing louder still
A
I'm trading in the little blue pills
For a needle and an empty bed
[Chorus]
Bb F
So set it all to flame
Dm
And let the ashes burn
A
Beneath my calloused feet
Bb
This flesh and bone
F
Have become my only company
A
A constant hold on the trigger
To sustain some sanity
[Bridge]
Dm F C A X2 (In between note is always an E)
[Bridge 2]
Dm F C#
I've been cut and strung like a puppet
Dm Bb C#
Tell me was it all worth it
Dm F C#
When you cease to question your captor
Dm
Stockholm has stolen your sanity
Bb C# Dm
Can't say goodbye
