Verse:

G (320003@1)          G (320003@1) I saw your father in the hall

G (320003@1)            D (xx0232@1) His ghost is living in the walls

Cadd9 (x32030@1)        Cadd9 (x32030@1)  I heard him crying while you slept

Cadd9 (x32030@1)        D (xx0232@1)  I heard him breaking things after you left

[Verse]
   I watched you crawl into my bed
   With curses spilling from your head
   You said "We're just the walking dead"
   So I pulled the trigger and we floated off
[Verse]
   Into the air, into the air
   Into the air, into the air
   We're in the air, we're in the air
   Up in the air, up in the air
[Verse]
   I used to worry about the time
   That I lost my teeth along the line
   So I carved the apple from my eye
   And gave it to you before I went away
[Verse]
   Blood ran into the kitchen sink
   Your hand and lives are running pink
   I sat and watched you as your ring
   Slipped off and rolled across the kitchen floor
[Verse]
   They cut your 
   Eyes wide open
   And pour into 
   Your precious head
[Verse]
   My reach don't 
   Go that far dear
   But please oh 
   Please don't let them in


Bridge:

Em (022000@1) F#m (244222@1)  Cadd9 (x32030@1)Bm (x24432@1)  G (320003@1)  I sank into the sea

Em (022000@1)       F#m (244222@1)Cadd9 (x32030@1)Bm (x24432@1)  G (320003@1)  Wrapped in piano strings

Em (022000@1)   F#m (244222@1)       Cadd9 (x32030@1)Bm (x24432@1)  G (320003@1)  Few words could open me

Em (022000@1) F#m (244222@1)  Cadd9 (x32030@1)             D (xx0232@1)  But you knew them all

[Verse]
   Now I just sleep beneath your floor
   My ghost just tries to keep you warm
   I've seen the end, I've lost the war
   One day you're 20 years just like the rain
[Verse]
   I hear the engines
   They're roaring in our mouths
   The smell of creatures
   Are falling tooth and nail to get out
[Verse]
   I see the airplanes
   They're pouring from the chest
   They fill the air
   And burn and bury just like the rest
