Verse
G#
Hello reaper, have we met?
Fm G#
Still so many things I haven't said
Hello darkness, you're here again
C# D# G#
Last I saw you, I was tangled in my head
Hello sadness, are you here to stay?
A#m D# G#
Right when things were finally going my way
G#
I met this angel
G#
She taught me to fly
A#m D# G#
Yeah, she showed me all the colors of the sky
[Pre-Chorus]
C#
So please don't take her away
Fm
But if you do
C# D#
I'm just skin and bones, I know that there's room
[Chorus]
Fm D#
When the man in black
C# G#
Comes to cash his check
Fm C# G#
And you're holding on to your final breath
Fm G#
When you walk out the door
Fm
Know that I will too
C# D# G#
I hope they build coffins for two
[Verse 2]
G#
When I was younger, I used to pray
C# D#
That my life was more than the sum of my mistakes
G#
And now you're here, dressed in white
C# D# G#
I guess he heard my voice on all those lonely nights
G#
Now we're older
Fm
But you look brand new
A#m D# G#
Every day I'm falling more in love with you
G#
When you're tired and your eyes close
C# D# G#
You won't have to take your final walk a-lone
[Pre-Chorus]
A#m Fm
So if for-ever leaves too soon
C# D#
Only skin and bones, I know that there's room
[Chorus]
Fm D#
When the man in black
C# G#
Comes to cash his check
Fm D# C# G#
And you're holding on to your final breath
Fm G#
When you walk out the door
Fm
Know that I will too
C# D# Fm D# G#
I hope they build coffins for two-o-o-o
[Bridge]
Fm D# C#
I'm never leaving you-u-u-u
Fm D# G#
Coffins for two-o-o-o
Fm D# C# G#
I'm never leaving you-u-u-u
[Chorus]
Em* D*
When the man in black

Comes to cash his check

And you're holding on to your final breath
Fm D#
When you walk out the door
G# Fm
Know that I will too
C# D# Fm
I hope they build coffins for two
Am*
I hope they build coffins for two
