[F#] [B] [C#]
[F#] Now I fell [C#] into your arms
[G#m] My only lover, give [F#] out to give in
[B] I [A#m] search for the [C#] castle I lost
[F#] Drag me [D#m] to hell [F#] in the valley [C#] of the dead
[G#m] Like my mother, give [F#] wings to a stone
[B] It's [A#m] only the shadow [C#] of the cross
[B] [C#]
[D#m] [A#m] [B] I [F#] [C#]
[F#]
slap [D#m] on my back [A#m] in the shade [C#] of the meadow
Like [A#m]
[B] a champion, get [F#] drunk to get [B] laid
I [A#m] take one more [C#] hit when you depart
[B]
[F#] I'll [D#m] drive that stake through the center [C#] of my heart
[B] Lonely vampire, inhale in [F#] its fire
[B]
I'm chasing [A#m] the [C#] dragon to find you
[B] [D#m] [A#m] [D#m]
[B] [F#] [C#]
[B] [F#] There's blood [D#m] on that blade
Fuck [C#] me, I'm falling apart
My [B] assassin, like [F#] Casper the [B] Ghost
There's no shade [A#m] in the [C#] shadow of the cross
