[Verse 1]
A                        A
Remember the day when we kicked rocks?
F#                                 A
We picked up our socks and walked away
            A              A
I found the answers that I don't like
            F#                          A
The way you just might claim 'em all as yours
               A               A
Ain't found no god, I met that devil
             F#                           A
Brought me a silver spade and dug all the grave
                A                       A
I’ll wring your neck 'cause you sing so sweetly
           F#                       A
You’re too good to me, where are my regrets?


[Chorus]
  E                         F
Before I worked the mines I never missed the sky
       C                             E7
Then I missed you once, [?] gonna be living out a lie [?]
   Am                           F
So haunt my dreams and leave me restless
C                             E7
Help me not forget I left you breathless

[Verse 2]
                   A                A
[?] up to find our wings, become my marionette
          F#                              A
So we can dance again and I can pluck her strings
                A                                    A
I'll crunch her throat beneath her bones in the pale moonlight
           F                     A
Oh shining this night [?] in the wind
             A                A
I'll put you back in your old pine box
               F#                     A
I'll let those birds watch me draw my forty-five
          A                 A
I lost my youth, oh to that sunrise
         F#                              A
But by a goddamn gave those birds a nice surprise


[Chorus]
  E                         F
Before I worked the mines I never missed the sky
       C                             E7
Then I missed you once, [?] gonna be living out a lie [?]
   Am                           F
So haunt my dreams and leave me restless
C                             E7
Help me not forget I left you breathless
