C Bm Am Gm
Jason, believe me, you can’t trust your dreams
F E F
when they take you alone in your room
C Bm Am Gm
Some of them showgirls and some of them queens,
F Ab C
but none of them who you swore to
C Am Em
Hold on, Ho-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-old on
Am Em Bb
'til they summon old bones of mothers of old
Ab F# F
You say love’s gonna die, they say love’s gonna come home

C Bm Am Gm
Young man, you shake hands too quickly with captains
F E F
that take you alone in the night
C Bm Am Gm
What’s in the hull? Is it femurs and skulls,
F Ab C
then why are their hands so slight?
C Am Em
So hold on, Ho-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-old on
Am Em Bb
to the resident bones of sons who roam
Ab F# F
You say you’re gonna die, they say you’re gonna come home
Am Em F C
So sleep with your eyes open, oh, sleep with your eyes open
F C Ab
Sleep on your back, stave off the attack of carnivorous things
Am Em F C
So sleep with your eyes open, oh, sleep with your eyes open
F C Ab
Sleep on your back, stave off the attack of carnivorous things
