[C]Once I was [G]dug up I was [F]sink[C]ing
I was [G]longing to be [F]saved
[C]I lapped up to the [G]bay bar
And I [F]saw her b[G]obbing like a w[F]ave
[Dm]And I slowed do[F]wn
[C]Just six months this [G]summer since I've [F]known h[C]er
[G]That she's been [F]away
[C] [G] [F] [C] [G] [F]
[Dm]And sometimes I still answer to the gone ghosts that only suckers make
[F]Slow down [G]and hold on [Dm]hold on[F] [C] [G] [F] [C] [G] [F]
[C]Even my [G]heroes are [F]almost g[C]one
Almost [G]folding from the fl[F]ame
[C]But how low [G]how can your fuse glow
And w[F]arm [C]you u[G]ntil your torch begins to f[F]ade[Dm] [F] [G] [F] [Dm] [F]
[C]I dreamed of a [G]couple dancing [F]close and [C]drunk
In the [G]spray of lights they [F]made
[C]And once I was [G]dug up
I was [F]sin[C]king but now I'm l[G]onging to be [F]save[Dm]d[F] [G]
