Tom: Am

Intro
D Bm G D x2

Verse

D        Bm    G        D
My dark places no one goes
Lipstick traces on my clothes
All commanding higher power
A                          Bm                  G
Destroy my demons for the dreams that they devour


D        Bm      G            D
All these ghosts are haunting me
Hiding in my family tree
Help me father, help me mother
A                        Bm                  G    x2
Destroy my demons and the pain that they uncover


D                   Bm             G            A
Somebody come and save me, I’m sinking like a stone
D                   Bm
I don’t want to be abandoned
G                    A
I don’t want to be alone
G                         Em                E7
Somebody strip my soul of all this peeling paint
G
I don’t feel forgiven
         D   Dm
I feel faint


*Key switch here is tricky and hard to pick up by listening, go quickly into the 
below after the Dm above.

Flute Solo (I usually whistle it)

F        Dm     Bb         F

Hoping you would come and save me

Destroy my demons with the love they never gave me
