G5 G5

           G5               G5               B-> E-> D5      
Choking slowly broken hearted
G5               G5                G5                      B-> E-> D5
Don't look now , here s what you started
      C5         G5                    D5                 E5     D5           C5
And I swore I'd be there  till the end, We re bitter now but better friends
C5                       C5        D5         D5                  D5            
I climbed out limbless to the ledge to bask in my last true regrets
Astring-5h777h9(b9)10
G5                   D5            E5
Lay my heavy head here down to sleep
Astring-5h777h9(b9)10
G5                   C5            E5         
Now pray to Abraxis my soul to keep
Astring-5h777h9(b9)10
G5                   D5            E5
Lay my heavy head here down to dream
Astring-5h777h9(b9)10
C5                 D5            G5
Wake up with this lead poisoning


Sobbing softly lost and hollow
This fevered dream tough pill to swallow
And I swore I d be there to the end, You re better off your bitterness
I climbed out lifeless to the edge, I waved goodbye and leapt high

Lay my heavy head here down to sleep
Now pray to a brass fist my soul to keep
Lay my heavy head here down to dream
Awaken to the blood and sweat and screams


Woke up here on Monday morning
This old tree on this dark corner
Waiting here for what tomorrow brings (2nd guitar gstring:4-5-4-2-0, sorry trumpets :p)
Silver Lake mercury mining
This mistake no silver lining
Waiting for a bullet train to bring me my lead poisoning
(trumpet to guitar tab: guitar gstring:7-7-7-7-5-4-5-4___ 7-7-7-7-5-4-5-0___7-7-7-7-5-4-5-7-(b9)7-4
My lead poisoning
__7-7-7-7-5-4-5-4__7-7-7-7-(b9)7-5-4-7-7-7-7-5-4-5-7-5-4-5-4-2-4-2-0-2-0)


Lay my heavy head here down to sleep
Now pray to a brass fist my soul to keep
Lay my heavy head here down to dream
Wake up with this lead poisoning
