F7M Em7 Dm Am7

F7M
I'm lost to heaven and I'm lost to earth
Em7 Dm Am7}
Didn't give you a minutes-not even moments

All my life in a tower of foil
Em7 Dm Am7

Em7 Dm
Words don't hold you,
Am7 F7M
Broken soldiers

G Dm C
All my insights in retrospect-But
F7M (riff)
Bonny don't live at home (repeat)
