[Verse 1]
Em
Oh hollow child
C G
Somebody's made you empty
Em
And all the while
C G
I wished for you an entry
[Chorus]
G Em
I will love you
C Am Em
If nobody else will seem to make your bed
[Verse 2]
Em
Oh hollow child
C G
I hate the way you process
Em
A powdered wig
C G
Behind a lack of progress
[Chorus]
G Em
I will draw you
C Am Em
As somebody else who you would like to save
[Bridge]
Em
And remedy isn't a plenty
D
But melody isn't as deadly
C (G)(D)
Brother
Em
And I know it isn't forgiving
D
But nobody loves when we're living
C
So fuck her
[Verse 3]
Em
Oh hollow child
C G
I want to be your witness
Em
A martyrdom enveloped
C G
As your sickness
[Chorus]
G Em
I will hear you
C Am Em
Regardless of any trace of consciousness
[Verse 4]
Em
Oh hollow child
C G
I felt it incremental
Em
But I have had
C G
The privilege of the pencil
[Chorus]
G Em
I will bind you
C Am Em
If only to make it so that you stay here
[Bridge]
Em
And remedy isn't a plenty
D
But melody isn't as deadly
C (G)(D)
Brother
Em
And I know it isn't forgiving
D
But nobody loves when we're living
C
So fuck her
[Chorus]
G Em
I will hold you
C Am Em
But only if you would ever want me to
G Em
I will heal you
C Am Em
If that is the only thing you've left to do
