Dm          G                      Dm 
You (you) have never stood this close

To where you want to be
Dm           G                          Dm 
You (you) have always waded in the shallows

Between me and the deep blue sea

 You never want this to be over
G           C              Dm       Bb      G 
 You never want it to reach out to the edge of time

[Estribillo]

Am    C    Dm                  Bb 
While you sleep in earthly delight
           F                  C 
Someone's flesh is rotting tonight
        Bb       Dm 
Like no other to you

What you've done you cannot undo

I (I) have always kept you closer
              G 
Than you have known
Dm     G                     Dm
I (I) i am riding in the shadows
       G              Dm    Bb 
Behind you on a pale white horse

[Pre-Estribillo]

G           C               Dm   Bb

 You never want this to be over

Someone's flesh is rotting tonight

What you've done you cannot undo
Am    C   Dm                  Bb
While you sleep in earthly delight
            F                  C  
Still, your soul will suffer this plight
          Bb        Dm 
Like your father in hell
            F                C
What you've sold you cannot unsell

( Am  Dm   C  G  )

While you sleep in earthly delight
            F                     C 
Still, your soul will suffer this plight
           Bb           Dm 
But like a mother would save
        F                    C
Her own child from digging a grave
