Intro: Cm Cm G# Gm }x2
Cm
I was raised in the valley,
there was shadows and death.
G# Gm
Got out alive but with scars I can’t forget.
Cm
This kid back in school,
subdued and shy.
G# Gm
An orphan and a brother and unseen by most eyes.
Cm
I don’t know what it was that made a piece of him die,
G#
Took a boy to the forest,
Gm
slaughtered him with a scythe.
Cm
Stamped on his face, an impression in the dirt.
G# Gm
Do you think the silence makes a good man convert?
Cm
We all have our horrors and our demons to fight.
G# Gm
But how can I win, when I’m paralyzed?
Cm
They crawl up on my bed, wrap their fingers round my throat.
G# Gm
Is this what I get for the choices that I made?
Cm G# Gm
God forgive me, for all my sins. God forgive me, for everything.
Cm G# Gm
God forgive me, for all my sins. God forgive me, God forgive me.
Cm
Don’t go, I can’t do this on my own.
G# Gm
Don’t go, I can’t do this on my own.
Cm
Save me from the ones that haunt me in the night.
G# Gm
I can’t live with myself, so stay with me tonight.
Cm (RIFF)
Don’t go.
Cm (RIFF)
Don’t go.
Cm
If I let you in, you’d just want out.
G# Gm
If I tell you the truth, you’d vie for a lie.
G# A#
If I spilt my guts, it would make a mess we can’t clean up.
Cm
If you follow me, you will only get lost.
G# Gm
If you try to get closer, we’ll only lose touch.
G# A#
But you already know too much, and you’re not going anywhere.
Cm
Tell me that you need me because I love you so much.
Cm
Tell me that you love me because I need you so much.
Cm
Tell me that you need me because I love you so much.
Cm
Say you’ll never leave me because I need you so much.
