[Verse 1]
[Dm]I buried my heart in a hole
in the [F]ground[G][Dm]
With the lights and the roses and the
cowards [F]downtown[G][Dm]
They threw me a party,
there was no one [F]around[G][Dm]
They tried to call my girl,
but she could not be [G]found[Dm]

[Verse 2]
[Dm]
I buried my guilt in a pit in the
[F]sand[G][Dm]
With the rust and the vultures
and the trash [F]downtown[G]

kid, you'll never be [F]found[G][Dm]
'Cause while you were sleeping,

[Verse 4]
[Dm]
I fell for a girl with a port-
wine [F]stain[G][Dm]
I knew her initials,
but never her [F]name[G][Dm]
I tried and I tried and I was
never the [F]same[G]
[Dm]So no longer felt love and I'm forever
