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

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