Verse 1:
E5                Ab5
  These hospital walls 
                 A5
are the palest of white
C#5             E5
   here in this desert 
                    B5         A5
they're reciting my last rites
                   B5
the smell of these halls
                 E5
brings temporary comfort
as the oxygen flows 
Ab5
through my blood
A5        B(hold)
  el corazon was 
poisoned tonight


Chorus:
E5 Ab5
     she's on her 
      A5     B5 B7(hold)
eight 8 of 9


Verse 2:
     E5
when half of all your 
                 Ab5
prayers are insincere
                  A5    B5 A5
the other half are lies
E5              Ab5
  here is this watermark 
           A5
under this bridge
C#5
   the point where 
       E5
it all crested
rolled back and 
B5               A5
drifted into the sea
                  B5
i climb from this wreckage
        E5
as the smoke begins 
         Ab5
to clear from my lungs
A5                B5
  the closest of close calls 
               C#5
has happened tonight
it's time that i 
E5
made things right
        B5
for the first time
          A5        B5
since the last time
C#5                   E5
   let this moment of clarity
          B5
lift this curse that 
               A5     A5
has been cast upon me


Verse 3:
A5
  So appreciate 
    B5
the good times
E5
  but don't take the 
          Ab5
worst for granted
A5                B(hold)
  cause you only get so 

many second chances
