[Verse 1]
         Am             Em/G
The aftermath of an armageddon
      Em/G
Of my world
           D/F#
Who will comfort me?
          F
Just the buzzing bees
        D/F#
And the burnt down trees?
         G            G#dim
Who will comfort me?


[Verse 2]
           Am
The butterflies?
           Em/G
The orchid mantis?
               Em/G
We see eye to eye
          D/F#
I never planned it
            F
They come around at night
            D/F#
When nothing is in sight
          G
They will comfort
          G#dim
They will comfort

Whole

And when I die
         Em/G
Cross my heart
       Em/G
When I die
              D/F#
Yeah, they'll see me
             F
And when I'm dead
        D/F#
When I'm dead
     Em/G
Bury me

Bury me
