Tom: Dm

                      Dm
Confession, I stooped low
                         Bb
And thought they'd never know
     A              Dm             Bb
Just what I did and so I buried it
   A
I buried it
    Dm                              Bb
Got by, killed what I thought would die
      A         Dm
Don't got no alibi, I buried it
Bb            Am
I fucking buried it

[Verse 2]
                  Dm                           Bb
And now all of my tales have damned me to this jail
  A             Dm                Bb
I hit the final nail, I buried it
    A                 Dm                       Bb
But still dead things creep and stalk me in my sleep
      A            Dm
Think I'm about to freak, I buried it
Bb               A
I fucking buried it


[Chorus]
Dm        Bb
Run away, run for your life
           Dm              Gm
Before the monster gets inside
               Dm
Thought it was dead and gone
    Bb
But I was so wrong
              Dm
'Cause it had been so long
                    Gm
I never thought I'd live to see the dead walk
Dm         Bb  A
                See the dead walk
Dm         Bb  A
                See the dead walk
Dm         Bb  A
                See the dead walk
Dm         Bb  A


[Verse 3]
                   Dm
The skeletons that wrote
                    Bb
This twisted horror show
                      Dm            Gm
They're coming from below to bury me
                     Dm
So hush don't make a sound
                    Bb
There's terrors all around
                        Dm
They crawled out of the ground to bury me
Gm
To fucking bury me


[Chorus]
Dm        Bb
Run away, run for your life
           Dm              Gm
Before the monster gets inside
               Dm
Thought it was dead and gone
    Bb
But I was so wrong
              Dm
'Cause it had been so long
                    Gm
I never thought I'd live to see the dead walk

[Bridge]
D                                         Db
Doctor, do you know what's been eating me alive?
D
Like a necrotizing parasite
D                                            Db
Like a lie, it burns and crawls beneath your skin
D
They say that in turn you, turn in to
     Db            D
What you've always been


[Chorus]
Dm        Bb
Run away, run for your life
           Dm              Gm
Before the monster gets inside
               Dm
Thought it was dead and gone
    Bb
But I was so wrong
              Dm
'Cause it had been so long
                    Gm
I never thought I'd live to see the dead walk
Dm        Bb
Run away, run for your life
           Dm              Gm
Before the monster gets inside
               Dm
Thought it was dead and gone
    Bb
But I was so wrong
              Bb
'Cause it had been so long

And life went on, thought it was done
                    C
I was so wrong, the secret's out
                    Bb
I never thought I'd live to see the dead walk
