Dm / / / |Dm / Dm(add9) / | x2

            Dm
Were you surprised that we never spoke?
                                             Dm(add9)
Then in the still of the night, when nothing stirs
             Dm
I woke and I gathered up some clothes.
                                    Dm(add9)
I never planned on this but its the way it goes
           Dm
and now it all seems so familiar like pages turned on calendars
                                                 Dm(add9)
we get the same twelve months to fuck things up, year after year
      Dm
and I can't believe how down I am like the well I'm being lowered in,
                                     Dm(add9)            Dm
now water stops, the bucket drops us farther and farther down.

       B7                                  G(b5)7
Well I guess that you never knew me, or at least not well enough.
     Dm                                                             Dm(add9)
So I fill my gut with dark red wine until my brain shuts off and my eyes go blind.
          Dm
You won't see me there in that thick black air.
                                  Dm(add9)
Yeah, I'll finally make something disappear.

                  B7
Because I've been practicing disappearing
      G(b5)7
and I think that I've got it down

    Dm
But now there is no sun just a cellar
                             Dm(add9)
Nowhere is sky its just that black, black dirt yeah.
    Dm
But now there is no sun just a cellar
                             Dm(add9)
Nowhere is sky its just that black, black, black, black


Dm
dirt. Expanding outwards just echoes for answers
                                       Dm(add9)
not that it matters if its back or its forwards.
Dm                                  Dm(add9)
   Unhappy lovers with baskets of flowers
Dm
   use them as markers
                     Dm(add9) Dm                   Dm(add9)  Dm
the place where your bed once stood a time when it still felt good.


           B7
But you'll get that feeling back
               G(b5)7
Yeah, you just need some time to think
       Dm
And to add up the hell, get it straight in your mind

But to calculate cost, that may take some time
        B7
But I'm sure you'll get to feeling better
             G(b5)7
Yeah, I just need some time to drink

        Dm
So I'll fill my gut with that blood red wine
                             Dm(add9)
until my insides swim and my veins unwind.
        Dm
I'll be lying there in that hot white air once
                               Dm(add9)  Dm        ~end on Dm
that something's gone it might never reappear.
