Verse
G A
Oh, I see you in your cobra nest
Bm
All dressed up in your sunday best
G A
In the opal morning light
Bm
See your gun there, shining bright
Shining bright
[Verse 2]
G A
Now the storm is on it's way
Bm
Coming here to break the day
Steaming rain
G A
Oh, you go shoot me down
Bm
Take my halo, yolk and crown
Yolk and crown
[Chorus]
G A Bm
'Cause I've been to the darkest place I know
G A Bm
So you, my dear, shouldn't fear what lies below
It's just bones
[Interlude]

strum each chord only once, it's like the solo played as chords
[Verse 3]
G A
Now you go softly soft
Bm
Picking out better bones than your own
G A
Oh, I see you creep in the dark
Bm
Sticking pins into the rain
To wash away
[Chorus]
G A Bm
I've been to the only place I know
It's just bones
G A Bm
So you, my dear, shouldn't fear what lies below
It's just bones
[Bridge]
G
Just bones, bones
A
bones, bones
Bm
bones, bones
bones, bones
G
bones, bones
A
bones, bones
Bm
bones, bones
bones, bones
[Chorus]
G A Bm
So how can love bare to see you, bare to see you go alone?
G A Bm
I can't bloom, this speeding heart's got the same bone as your own,
As your own
G A Bm
So you, my dear, shouldn't fear what lies below
It's just bones
G A Bm
And I've been to the darkest place you know
It's just bones
