[C/G] [Em]
e---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0-------------------| B---1---1---1---1---1---1---1---1---0---0---0-------------------| G---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0-------------------| D---2---2---2---2---0---2---2---2---2---2---2---------------0---| A---3---3---3---3---3---3---3---3---3---2---2-------------------| E---3---3---3---3---3---3---3---3---3---0---0---0---2---3-------|
I saw a [C/G]white-haired child, [Em]staring out through hollow gray eyes[D] [Am]
I saw [C/G]men that come to early ends,[Em] men who flicker, dim, and die [D] [Am]
I saw a [C/G]kerosene skyline from the [Em]suburbs of the city on a hill[D] [Am]
I heard the [C/G]clatter of the coin and the [Em]yawning of the few that have their fill[D] [Am]
And the [C/G]sun, it is a blister, [Em]rising like the dead
I drag my [D]shadow behind me, and I drag my[Am] body to the edge of my bed
With my p[C/G]alms pressed to my eyes, I p[Em]ray this one last time
If you?re [D]someone else I might love you still, but [Am]as it is we?re done
Oh and [C/G]you, you will not dig a [Em]hole in me
You will not chop d[D]own my tree
Or hold me under the w[Am]ater
No and y[C/G]ou, you will not dig a [Em]hole in me
You will not chop [D]down my tree
Or hold me under the [Am]water
Hold me under the [C/G]water
Hold me under the [Em]water
Hold me under the [D]water
Hold me under the [Am]water
Outro (still singing "Hold me under the water"):
[Cmaj7] [Em]
