[A]
You poke your heads where the bruise is on the soles [E] of your feet
Well, [A] who's to say if [D] they're deserved?
But you're turning reckless now
I [A] hear you saying [F#m] through your teeth
That you'll paint them [A] down first
But I saw you flinch when the doctor's got the [E] cloth in you
I saw your smile [D] start to crack
It's not so funny when you're sunk
And there ain't nothing [F#m] you can do
When [E]
your options are all [D] dead ends
There's no way [A] out
I'll [E] let you build your home in me
Till the clocks [D] run down
When your luck's [A] running out
Call [E] me and I will come and fix you
Keep me [D] up and round
There's no [A] way out
Call [F#m] me and I will come and bury you
All [E] safe and sound
[Em]
And [D] all this time
[A] You've been drifting out [E] with the tide, my friend
But you can have [D] what's mine
[A] Look it up, you can stay [E] afloat
And if that covers [D] my head
[A] I can watch you drown [E] in the pool, my friend
But I'll tell you [D] the lies
[A] Instead I'll teach you [E] to sleep at night
And the more we [D] fight
[A] The more we [E] don't get right, my friend
And the more we [D] fight
[A] The more we don't get [E] right
I hope [A]
you
[E] That [D] you gave it
That you tried
[F#m] And the fight had left [A] you
But don't you worry
[E]
[D] Makes no difference
[F#m] From the start
[E] Your options were all [D] dead ends
There's no [A] way out
I'll [E] let you build your home in me
Till the clocks [D] run down
When your luck's [A] running out
Call [E] me and I will come and fix you
Keep me [D] up and round
There's no [A] way out
Call [F#m] me and I will come and bury you
