	        Am           G              Em                  F 
We gather here, we line up, weepin' in a sunlit room 
Am             G      Em                      F 
And if I'm on fire, you'll be made of ashes, too 
Am                    G               Em 
Even on my worst day, did I deserve, babe 
            F 
All the hell you gave me? 
Am              G             
'Cause I loved you, I swear I loved you 
Em             F     C           
'Til my dying day     

Dm          Am         F                 C          
 I didn't have it in myself to go with grace 
Dm              Am           F          C        
 And you're the hero flying around, saving face 
Dm           Am               F              C 
 And if I'm dead to you, why are you at the wake? 
            Dm               Am 
Cursing my name, wishing I stayed 
             F 
Look at how my tears ricochet 

( C  Dm  Am  F ) 

Am         G       Em                        F 
We gather stones, never knowing what they'll mean 
Am       G       Em                    F 
Some to throw, some to make a diamond ring 
Am                      G                           
You know I didn't want to have to haunt you 
Em                   F 
But what a ghostly scene 
Am                        G  
You wear the same jewels that I gave you 
Em          F    C 
As you bury me 

Dm         Am         F                 C          
 I didn't have it in myself to go with grace 
Dm              Am                 F         C        
'Cause when I'd fight, you used to tell me I was brave 
Dm          Am               F              C 
And if I'm dead to you, why are you at the wake? 
            Dm               Am 
Cursing my name, wishing I stayed 
             F 
Look at how my tears ricochet 

C              Dm         
And I can go anywhere I want 
Am            F            
Anywhere I want, just not home 
C                   Dm  
And you can aim for my heart, go for blood 
Am                   F 
But you would still miss me in your bones 
C             Dm         Am           F 
And I still talk to you (When I'm screaming at the sky) 
C              Dm                  Am            F 
And when you can't sleep at night (You hear my stolen lullabies)  
  
C  Dm         Am            F                 C  
  I didn't have it in myself to go with grace 
Dm           Am              F                  C 
And so the battleships will sink beneath the waves 
Dm          Am               F                  
You had to kill me, but it killed you just the same 
C           Dm              Am                   
Cursing my name, wishing I stayed 
                      F 
You turned into your worst fears 
C                       Dm                    Am 
And you're tossing out blame, drunk on this pain 
                  F 
Crossing out the good years 
            C           Dm                Am 
And you're cursing my name, wishing I stayed 
             F 
Look at how my tears ricochet
