Intro: D A D G 

    Bm                 D                            A  
Oh love is that a vulture don?t tell me it?s a vulture  
                Bm 
standing beside you. 
           D                        A 
And do you see your own face in his eyes? 
                         Bm 
Do you see him like I do? Oh 

         D                            A 
It used to be that when you said you believed it 
                   Bm 
I would believe it too 
           D                               A 
It used to be that when you said you were leaving 
                   G 
I'd want to follow you 
 G                                           
But never where the dogs bark, never where the dogs bark 
    A                D A           G 
and I remember, praying at the dinner table 
    A                         D              G 
For you to come around, maybe pat me on the back when you're able. 

Bm                                  D 
Now I've a dream of you with half a face 
                      A 
and you take me to a rooftop and skin me 
                                Bm 
Come on, Abel, are you going to skin me? 
                 D                       A 
And use it as a mask to keep you in the dark 
Bm        D                  A 
When the shadow of the moon won't do 
Bm            D                 A 
'cause on you, the moon is but a pearl 
A                                          D                     G 
Stolen from your mother's bedside the day you came into the world 
G 
still now, i can hear the dogs bark, i can hear the dogs bark 

A               D      A        G 
and i remember, praying at the dinner table 
   A                       D               G 
for you to come around, maybe pat me on the back when you're able 
A                            D     A      G 
oh whole cities light up, but nothing can compare to you, baby 
    A             D         G 
so I stay awake, laying on the dinner table 
                    A 
waiting for you to hurt me, come on Abel, hurt me, hurt me, hurt me 
D                 G 
come down to the world 

A                                     G 
hurt me, come on Abel, cut me, cut me, serve me 'round the table. 
      A 
and now it's laying on the table 
G 
waiting for you, on the table 
    A                                  D          G 
to carve it up and watch the spray go across the river-bed  
     A                               D                           
and sweet aromas fill the halls from all the bodies that came before 
    A                   Bm 
and that's the body, i swear that's the body 
A                 D     A        G 
i remember, it was laying on the dinner table  
     A                                   D     G 
and when you came around, said you'll be doing fine when you're able 
   A                         D       A  G 
oh whole cities light up but nothing can compare to you, baby 
   A                D             G 
so I stay waiting, laying on the dinner table. 
   A 
oh hurt me, hurt me, hurt me 
   G 
oh cut me, cut me, serve me
