[Abm] [B] [Db]
[Ebm] I [B] see my hopes and dreams,
[Abm] more than I wished [B] I could be.

[Ebm] I watched a tale of a light, through [B] a whiskey bottle.

[Db]
[B] Well, now the sky, is lit by a [Db] thirsting heart.
[B] I thought I had it all, [Db] and I'm left with only scars.
[Eb] When a lonely [B] man cries, [Gb] tears [Db] fall his [Ebm] lungs.
He hugged [B] gold, can't break like [Gb] glass.

The things that [Gb] paved my skies,
[Db]
[Eb] They're [Ebm] up and [B] down, and in [Gb] between.
But [Db] more than [B] I, I'm [Ebm] more than lost.
[Abm] [Ebm]
And it all came down, [B] like a rolling stone.
[Abm] The only thing I gave her, [B] was the pain of [Db] it all.
[Ebm] That well of holy water, [B] was really devil's blood.
[Abm] Sweet and pure beginning, [B] then it drowned me [Db] in the blood.
Well, [B] I was young, I lived my [Db] time from heart.
[B] I thought I had it all, [Db] and I'm left with only scars.
[Eb] When a lonely [B] man cries, [Gb] tears [Db] fall his lungs.
