Intro
E G#m F# E
[Verse 1]
E G#m
I came here for sanctuary,
F# E
away from the winds and the sounds of the city.
E G#m
I came here to get some peace,
F# E
Way down deep where the shadows are heavy.
E G#m
I can't help but think of you,
F# E
In these four walls my thoughts seem to wonder
E G#m
To some distant century,
F# E
Where everyone we know is six feet under.
[Bridge]
E F# G#m B
When all of our friends are dead and just a memory
E F# G#m B
And we're side by side, it's always been just you and me
E B F#
For all-ll-ll to see.
[Chorus]
E G#m
When our lives are over
F# E
And all that remains
E G#m
Are our skulls and bones
F# E
Let's take it to the grave.
E G#m
And hold me in your arms, hold me in your arms,
F# E
I'll be buried here with you.
E G#m
And I'll hold in these hands,
F# E
All that remains.
[Verse 2]
E G#m
I don't want to rest in peace,
F# E
We can haunt each other's dreams.
E G#m
We'll fight underneath this turf,
F# E
Bicker away in darkness.
E G#m
We'll find our way to resolve
F# E
Our banes from the land of the living.
E G#m
We'll find a common ground
F# E
And fall in love all over again.
[Bridge]
E F# G#m B
When all of our friends are dead and just a memory
E F# G#m B
And we're side by side, it's always been just you and me
E B F#
For all-ll to see.
[Chorus]
E G#m
When our lives are over
F# E
And all that remains.
E G#m
Are our skulls and bones
F# E
Let's take it to the grave.
E G#m
And hold me in your arms, hold me in your arms,
F# E
I'll be buried here with you.
E G#m
And I'll hold in these hands,
F# E
All that remains.
[Verse 3]
E B F#
From dusk to dawn my unheard screams, grow silent in defeat
E B F#
I know I chased a memory but you used to taste so sweet.
E G#m
As you fade away I realise it's all ov-er
F#
and nothing stays the same
D#7
but skull and bones and grave.
[Bridge]
E F# G#m B
When all of our friends are dead and just a memory
E F# G#m B
And we're side by side, it's always been just you and me
E B F#
For all-ll to see.
[Chorus]
E G#m
When our lives are over
F# E
And all that remains.
E G#m
Are our skulls and bones
F# E
Let's take it to the grave.
E G#m
Hold me in your arms, hold me in your arms,
F# E
I'll be buried here with you.
E G#m F# E
And I'll hold in these hands, all that remains.
