[Intro]
A D
[Verse]
A (once, then mute) E
Bury me in the backyard with my best friends.
D A
Eventually each means will reach its end.
A E
They're drinking on the couch, so I'm leaving any minute now.
D A
I guess I'm just more diffident than I present.
A
'Cause I just want to go to sleep
E
and find some silence in my dreams,
D A
but I cannot rest, though I feel weak.
A
And I just want to go to bed
E
and find some silence in my head,
D A
but my thoughts are bursting at the seams.
[Interlude]
A D
[Verse]
A E
Bury me in your bedroom without sheets.
D A
Feed me your false pretense. Make me feel complete-
A E
-ly hammered, getting nailed, enamored with being frail
D A
in situations where false ends justify these means.
A
But I just want to go to bed
E
with someone who will not forget
D A
how I made them feel when we first met.
A
And I just want to go to sleep
E
beside someone who dreams of me,
D A
someone who will miss me when I'm dead.
A D
(for a while)
A A/G# D
(stop)
But I still can't fall asleep.
A D
until the end
