Intro
F G# Gm A#
[Verse 1]
F G#
See the sleep that rests upon
Gm A#
The quiet street we're standing on
F G#
Is it time to go away?
Gm A#
Try again some other day?
[Chorus]
F G# Gm A#
These are the words we use,
F G# Gm A#
to say goodbye
F G# Gm A#
These are the words we use,
F G# Gm A#
to say goodbye
[Verse 2]
F G#
Bones crack, curtains drawn
Gm A#
On my back and the sheet is gone
F G#
Somewhere else I do not know
Gm A#
Time will tell and I will go
[Chorus]
F G# Gm A#
These are the words we use,
F G# Gm A#
to say goodbye
F G# Gm A#
These are the words we use,
F G# Gm A#
to say goodbye
[Bridge]

C A#
[Verse 3]
F G#
I will wait, take a turn
Gm A#
Sort it out, let it burn
F G#
Empty out empty drawer
Gm A#
In my pockets there's nothing more
[Outro]
F G# Gm A#
These are the words we use,
F G# Gm A#
to say goodbye
