Transcribed by M.Brown

                F#                  Bbm
In through your window the sky will fall. You’ll trap the 
F#                                     Bbm
stars in jars and line them along your walls. And as the 
F#                                     Bbm
moonlight fills the veins beneath your skin, you’ll hear us 
F#                                  Bbm
knocking, oh, but you won’t let us  in.

                 D#m  
Cause you’ve got no friends,
                  D
And you’ve got no heartbeat.
                 D#m
Your insides are rotten now.
                      D
So there’s nothing to fix.

                F#                     B
But you said it often, before you were lost, that it’s only a 
D#m                   D
day. That it’s only a day. But now you’re a 
F#                            B  
monster, and your backbone is soft. Because you threw it
D#m                        D
away. Because you threw it away.


F#                                Bbm
You called me out; I shrugged you off. I don’t have the 
F#
time to watch you bash in all their skulls. Cause there’s a new 
F#                                  
boss in town, his heart is black, but his 
Bbm
hands can reach through anything. Stick your 
F#                                           Bbm
head in the ground. You might just dodge the guns.

            D#m
But I’m not your friend.
               D
And I will not fix you.
               D#m
My insides are hollow now.
                 D
So you’re all on your own. But I said it 

F#                    B
often, before we were lost. That it’s only a 
D#m                   D
day. That it’s only a day. But now I’m a 
F#                             B
monster, and my blood all runs cold. Because I threw it 
D#m                      D
away. Because I threw it away.

(same chords)
But now we’ve forgotten. And we’ve sold our blue skies.
But there’s nothing to say. We’ll be gone in a day.
And yeah, you can’t take it with you. But I can sure as hell try.
Now there’s nothing to say. I’ll be gone in a day.

(chorus chords till fade)
