Capo on 1
A#m
There's a hole in my heart
Cadd9
which you used to get your air
D#m F#
It won't beat again for at least another year.
A#m Cadd9
You cut it out yourself, so you wont suffocate in there
D#m F#
Your patience is losing to your fear,
A#m
When collecting angels come
Cadd9
I will rush to find your prayers
D#m F#
They're buried in the closet under the stairs
A#m
under boxes of my dreams
Cadd9
and the clutter of my fears
D#m F#
my selfishness is probably why they're here
A#m
and I kept digging my own grave
Cadd9
I'm close to 30 miles deep
D#m F#
I can taste the other side and it isn't pretty
A#m
and I left my lover in a bottle
Cadd9
and I threw it out to sea
D#m F#
as soon as she left my fingertips I prayed she come back to me
G#
come back to me baby
G-D-Em-F#
I lost her (7x)
A#m
I will never stitch the hole you cut
Cadd9
In hopes that you will return to me
D#m F#
I will work to be a man yes you will see
D#m F# (D)
yes I will work to be your man yes you will see.
End on G
