Capo 6th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

I'll breathe you in with smoke in the backyard lights,

we used to laugh until we choked into the wasted nights

It was the best time of my life, but now I sleep alone,

So don't, don't, don't wake me up, 'cause my thrill is gone

And the sunset's turning red behind the smoke,

forever and alone

And you've gone and sewn me to this bed, the taste of you and me

we'll never leave my lips again under the blinding rain

I wanna hold your hand so tight I'm gonna break my wrists,

and when the vultures sing tonight I'm gonna join right in

I'll sing along, oh

'cause I don't know any other song

I'll sing along,

but I'm barely hanging on

No, I'm barely hanging on

By the time you're hearing this I'll already be gone,

Now there's nothing to do but scream at the drunken moon

This isn't fair!

Don't you try to blame this on me

My love for you was bulletproof but you're the one who shot me

And god damn it, I can barely say your name,

so I'll try to write and fill the pen with blood from the sink

Woah oh

But don't just say it, you should sing my name

Pretend that it's a song 'cause forever it's yours,

and we can sing this on the way home

I'll sing along, oh

'cause I don't know any other song

I'll sing along,

but I'm barely hanging on

No, I'm barely hanging on

By the time you're hearing this I'll already be gone,

and now there's nothing to do but tear my voice apart

Now there's nothing to do but scream at the drunken moon
