Lyrics

(Em)I don’t like (C)walk in’ a round this (G)old and emp ty house So (Em)hold my hand, I’ll (C)walk with you my (G)dear.

The (Em)stairs creak (C)as you sleep; it’s (G)keep ing me a wake.

It’s the (Em)house tell ing (C)you to close your (G)eyes.

And (Em)some days (C)I can’t e ven trust my self.

It’s (Em)kill ing me to (C)see you this way.

’Cause though the (Em)truth may (C)va ry, this ship will (D)car ry our (Em)bod ies (C)safe to the shore.

Hey!

Don’t (Em)lis ten to a (C)word I say.

(D)Hey!

The (Em)screams all (C)sound the same.

(D)Hey!

Al though the (Em)truth may (C)va ry, this ship will (D)car ry our (Em)bod ies (C)safe to the shore.

(D)Hey!

(D)Hey!
