Introduction:
Em
There's a hole in my heart
C9
which you used to get your air
Am C
It won't beat again for at least another year.
Em C9
You cut it out yourself, so you wont suffocate in there
Am C
Your patience is losing to your fear,
Em
When collecting angels come
C9
I will rush to find your prayers
Am C
They're buried in the closet under the stairs
Em
under boxes of my dreams
C9
and the clutter of my fears
Am C
my selfishness is probably why they're here
Em
and I kept digging my own grave
C9
I'm close to 30 miles deep
Am C
I can taste the other side and it isn't pretty
Em
and I left my lover in a bottle
C9
and I threw it out to sea
Am C
as soon as she left my fingertips I prayed she come back to me
D
come back to me baby
G
I lost her (7x)
Em
I will never stitch the hole you cut
C9
In hopes that you will return to me
Am C
I will work to be a man yes you will see
Am C
yes I will work to be your man yes you will see.
