Em    
I'm on watch here
   D/F#                G
So close your eyes and get some rest
    C                  Em
I'm here to watch your heart
          C                Em
It's been faulted from the start
        Bm           C
I'm the ribs in your chest

Em
I'm not an angel, 
  D/F#          G
I never mean to make you cry
C                  Em
Jumping through my hoops
C                      Em
With dissension in the troops
      Bm      C
And a smile inside

C                D`
  It ends with a kiss
                 G
  It ends with a tear
                   Em
  It ends with the lights up
              C
  Bathing our fear

           D`
Tell me nonsense
                G
I don't want to see

I saw the lightning cut through the last winter sky of the year
