[Dm] I'll stretch on your grave and lie there [E] forever
[Dm] If your [D] hands were in mine, [A] I'd be sure we'd not [D] separate
[Eb] My old [Dm] tree, my rose, it's time we were together
For I smell of beer
[Gm] and I'm worn [D] by the weather
When [Dm] my family dies in my bed
From night until morning, I'll stretch at your [D] head
Holding up the air with tears, hot, tired and worn
For the girl [G] that I [D] love as [Gm] a [D] child
[Dm]
[D] Do you remember the night we were lost in the [Dm] state of the black moon
Under the shade of the palm [D] trees, the snow
[G] Time's faded, [D] yet yet we did what was most of your amazing
That still is your better half
The
[Bb] grace and the [D] fire approach me in turn
[Dm] Because I still love you, my love, [Gm] while [Dm] you're dead
But [Eb] I still would be a [D] judge to make and dress and wear [Dm] you in
For I [D] cannot breathe
I'll stretch on your grave and lie [Gm] there forever
[D] If your hands were in mine, I'd be sure we'd not separate
My old tree, my [Gm] rose, [Dm] it's time we were together
For I smell [G] of beer and I'm worn by the weather
[Gm] [D] [N]
[Dm] If your [D] hands were in mine, [A] I'd be sure we'd not [D] separate
