[Intro 1]
[Am][C]

[Verse 1]
Dyin' mama [C]barely
breathin' in a bed of nails
To wander through the ruin
smokin' and [Am]pale
Came upon an angel and a nightingale
Back [C]where the [Am]darkness comes
[C]Between the earth and
[Am]skies [C]above
Dead weight on my [Am]body's bones
I think [C]I dug too d[Am]eep a hole
[C]Think I dug [Am]too deep

[Verse 2]
A hole
[C]
Better run for cover babe you
better [Am]hide
Don't do no good to wait til time decides
Time decides
[C]Time
[Am]Time[C]
[Am]I need a lit[C]tle more time
Riding on my nightin[Am]gale

to [Am]ride[C][D]
[Dsus4]Hid ing on my night[D]ingale,
[E]aro[Em]und m[E]y heart[Em][C]

[Verse 3]
Climbing down [C]the stairs at last
I wouldn't touch me [Am]right[C]
You're too [Am]proud
and I'm too scared
And I'm neither here nor [C]there
It's [Am]only [C]fear
Well [Am]open up the [C]doors
[Am]And let me breathe that [C]air
[Am]

[Verse 4]

[Am]better [C]hide[Am][C]
