[Verse 1]
G                              Em     G 
We stand hand in hand like corpses
                         Em    
Our friends are corpses too
          G                  C 
And the man who took the photograph
                    Em          
Likes the look of you
 G                            Em      G          
We stand hand in hand like corpses
                        Em     
Our friends are corpses too
         G                   C 
And the man who gave the epitaph
                Em             
Said I wouldn't do
                             
                             
[Chorus]
                 G            
Darling, I have tried to fix you
                    C                       Em  
I can't count the times that I have kissed you
            C                             Em   
I never thought that when you built our home
                               
G              
You'd make it out of blood and bones
                         Em     
Darling, one of us should go
                             
                             
[Verse 2]
G                           Em        G          
My eyes were the first to disappear
                Em                G             
Then went my nose, then went my ears
                     Em        
With no eyes and no nose
                     G        
This death that I chose
                Em             
No eyes and no nose
                   G          
This death that I chose
                             
                             
[Bridge]
         G  Em                   
You're dead
       G     Em                 
I'm dead
     G    Em                    
You said
    G       Em                  
I bled you dry
                             
                             
[Chorus]
                 G            
Darling, I have tried to fix you
                    C                       Em  
I can't count the times that I have kissed you
            C                             Em   
I never thought that when you built our home                             
G              
You'd make it out of blood and bones
                         Em     
Darling, one of us should go
                             
                             
[Verse 3]
                                       G                
It's contagious, my fear and your pain
                                              G                
We look like corpses and our friends look the same
                        G                      Em
And we all stood together for worse or for better
                G                         Em
We all stood together for a photograph
                G                      Em
Yes, we all stood together for worse or for better
                  G                     Em
We all stood together for a photograph
                             
                             
[Bridge]
       G     Em                 
You're dead
       G     Em                     
I'm dead
       G   Em                    
You said
    G       Em                  
I bled you dry
                             
                             
[Chorus]
                   G          
Darling, I have tried to fix you
                     C                Em        
I can't count the times that I have kissed you
C                                        Em     
I never thought that when you built our home
                              G               
You'd make it out of blood and bones
     Em              G          
Darling, one of us should go
     Em               G         
Darling, one of us should go
     Em                G        
Darling, one of us should go
     Em                 G
Darling, one of us should go
