Lyrics

(F5)Mm, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm.

The sky looks pissed;

the wind talks (F5)er back.

My (F5)bones are shift ing (F5)in my skin, and (F5)you, my (F5)love, are gone.

My room feels wrong;

the bed won’t (F5)er fit.

I (F5)can not seem to (F5)op er ate, and (F5)you, my (F5)love, are gone.

gone.

So (F5)glide a way on (F5)soap y heels and (F5)prom ise (F5)not to (F5)prom ise an y (F5)more.

And (F5)if you come a (F5)round a gain, then (F5)I will (F5)take, then (F5)I will (F5)take the (F5)chain from (F5)off the (F5)door.

(F5)I will (F5)take the (F5)chain from off the (F5)door.

So (F5)glide a way on (F5)soap y heels and (F5)prom ise (F5)not to (F5)prom ise an y (F5)more.

And (F5)if you come a (F5)round a gain, then (F5)I will (F5)take the (F5)chain from off the (F5)door.

So (F5)glide a way on (F5)soap y heels and (F5)prom ise (F5)not to (F5)prom ise an y (F5)more.

And (F5)if you come a (F5)round a gain, then (F5)I will (F5)take the (F5)chain from off the (F5)door.

So (F5)glide a way on (F5)soap y heels and (F5)prom ise (F5)not to (F5)prom ise an y (F5)more.

And (F5)if you come a round a gain, then I will take, then I will take, then I will take the chain from off the door.
