[Gm] [Bb]
[Eb] [Cm]
[Eb] [Cm]
[Gm] [Bb]
[Eb] [Cm] [Eb]
[Cm] [Bb] [F]
[Eb] [Bb] It's the [Eb] air in your mother's [Cm] lungs
when her father tore her fences down
plastic bags in [Gm] the [Bb] pan and all [Eb] was out
[Bb]
Her [F] [Eb] [Bb]
soul [Eb] gives in three three five and [Cm] her father's dream died that night
just to keep [Gm] that [Bb] electricity [F]
around
And [Eb] it's the darkest side of my heart [Cm] that dies when you come to me
And [Eb] it's the golden ticket I win [Cm] when you kill my enemies
[Eb] Fire, the fireless cry and the softer [Cm] side when I'm empty
[Eb] But if you leave me I'll hide in a cave like [Cm] SimCity
Oh, when [Gm] I die [Bb] I'm alive, [Cm] when I lose I [Gm] find [Eb] my identity
So
[Cm]
[Eb] [Bb]
[F] I [Eb] [Bb] [Eb]
[Cm] bet you fall, watch you cry on your bedroom floor
And tattoo [Gm] my name [Bb]
underneath [Eb] your arm
[Bb] Ooh, love, [Eb] [Bb] love was alive [Eb] in the [Cm] olden days
Been put to death in this golden [F]
agony
And [Eb] it's the darkest side of my heart [Cm] that dies when you come to me
And [Eb] it's the [Cm] golden ticket [Eb] I win when [Cm] you kill my enemies
I hear the fireless cry and the softer side when I'm empty
But [Eb] if you leave me I'll get me [Cm] gone drowned face down muddy in the water
Oh, [Gm] when I [Bb] die I'm [Eb] alive, when [Gm] I [Bb] lose [Eb]
[Gm] [Bb]
[C] I [Gm] find [Eb] my identity
[Cm]

[Bb] [F] [Eb] Love, [F] was a stuck [Eb] love of [Cm]
Friday
Which was a holy shaking earthquake
And you were stuck [F] up the tree
And [Eb] it's the darkest [Cm]
side of my heart that dies when you come to me
Oh, [Eb] it's the [Cm] golden ticket [Eb]
I win when [Cm] you kill my enemies
I hear [Eb] the [Cm] fireless cry and the softer side when I'm empty
But [Eb] if you leave me I'll [Cm] have a good party night and a shiny night and a kind of dead end
Oh, [Gm] when I [Bb] die [Eb]
[Gm] [Bb]
[Eb] [Gm]
[Bb] [Eb]
I'm [Gm] [Bb] alive, [Cm] when I lose I [Gm] find [Eb] my identity
