BLay (x2444x@1)my bones 
                  G#mAt (133111@4)the feet of the ministry 
                         GI (320003@1)need the guilt and the company 
                       F#mI (244222@1)need the chance to be judged 
         EAnd (022100@1)then long forgotten 


BLately (x2444x@1)I just can't shake it 
G#mI (133111@4)count the days in seconds and minutes 
G (320003@1)                                    F#mHours (244222@1)and hours are subtle as shards of glass 
       EIn (022100@1)the skin 


   C#mB
So lay with me 
C#m (x13321@4)    B (x2444x@1)     E (022100@1)B (x2444x@1)I could use the company 
       E (022100@1)        BYou (x2444x@1)could help me ease 


BThese (x2444x@1)bones 

Are like maps and keys 
           C#mWhere (x13321@4)they took their hits 

And they felt those teeth 
          G#mThere's (133111@4)a story hidden 

Underneath 
       EIf (022100@1)you dig in deep 

Will you find relief? 
    BFor (x2444x@1)these bones 

Shudder all night long 
    C#mThe (x13321@4)hammer drops 

Another scar  
    G#mFor (133111@4)these bones 

But I know 
       EThey're (022100@1)only my second home.

Forgive my manner of speaking 
  G#m (133111@4)      
I know it's quick, but the clock is still ticking 
    G (320003@1)                                           F#mAnd (244222@1)I've got a few words left burning holes on my tongue
