A
you know you've hit rock bottom
F#m E
when you're mumbling the words to all her favorite songs
D7M
till the neighbors can hear your drunken slurs
A F#m
you know the end is creeping up when all
E
that you can feel were the faint remnants of touching her
Ebm7(b5) D7M
and wishing they were real.
A
you know you've hit rock bottom
F#m E
when you constantly refuse to take down
D7M
all the photographs from the times that she was with you.
A
You know the end is nigh
F#m
when you repeatedly deny
E
the fact that she is
Ebm7(b5) D7M
in the earth and you never got to say goodbye

marigold whithers away
Ebm7(b5) D7M
and this world never felt so cold
A D7M
my marigold oh it's a miracle
Ebm7(b5) D7M
that you kept me alive this long.
A D7M
I'm seriously contemplating chewing off my tongue
F#m E
to prevent from screaming out your name in these endless nights to come
A D7M
I'm seriously contemplating chewing off my tongue
F#m E
to prevent from screaming out your name in these endless nights to come
