Track: 1
Key: D minor
Tuning: Drop D
Tabbed by:Alec314
[Verse 1]
Dm F
Raining in Kyoto
Bb
It's flooding the streets
Gm Dm
I'm nursing a coffee from a vending machine
F Bb
I saw the god of rice, a fox with a key
Dm F
I woke up blind with a headache
Bb
Grinding my teeth
Gm Dm
Confused and alone and taking pills to sleep
F Bb
They soften your absence but they don't let me dream, dream
Gm Bb Gm Bb F Em
[Verse 2]
Dm F
Raining in Kyoto
Bb
My breath turns into steam
G Dm
I'll buy you a candle, not even sure what it means
F
I'm cursed to the matches
Bb
I'm drowning my grief
Dm F Bb
An old man stood close by, smiled at me
G
I rang the bell like he did
Dm
I told you I'm sorry
F Bb F Em
A makeshift funeral, I tried to set you free
[Chorus 1]
F C
You're half asleep
Dm Bb F Em
And I bought you a radio to drown out the machines
F C Dm Bb F Em
Hospital light, you asked about the way you wish that they'd let you outside
Dm F Bb G
[Verse 3]
Dm F
Raining in Kyoto
Bb
I'm starting to shake
G
They'll hold a service tomorrow
Dm
I'm an ocean away
F Bb
Reach into my pocket, found a small paper crane
Dm F
It's been over a year now
Bb
April turns into May
G Dm
I barely stopped moving, I've been so fucking afraid
F Bb F Em
Too much of a coward to even visit your grave
[Chorus 2]
F C
You're half awake
Dm Bb F Em
And I bought you a radio to play the blues away
F C Dm Bb
With my hand to hold, you asked about the way you wish that they'd let you die at home
[Bridge]
Gm Am Bb C Dm

F C Dm Bb
Hospital light, you asked about the way you wish that they'd let you outside
[Outro]
