Verse: Play Main riff.
Wait
I watched you throw out your bouquet
Now i think about you everyday
I'm alone now in my bed
And there's a lake
And at the bottom you'll find all our friends
They don't swim cause they're all dead
We never are what we intend, or invent
Pre Chorus:
G
'Cause I make little lies and then I pull them apart
D/F#
Think something dark's living down in my heart
Main riff
G
And if I wanted to die before I got old
D/F#
I should've started some years ago digging that hole
Chorus:
A
Well I carry this box to the proper place
And when I lower it down
I let it you fade away
F G
I hope that you would do this for me
A
I'd serve you drugs on a silver plate
If I thought it would help you get away
F G
I hope that you would do this for me
Verse: play Main Riff
A deer that a hunter shot in the heart
Some dogs that got hit by cars
All came to spill their guts
And we spoke
About the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost
And which songs we had loved the most
And then we all turned to dirt
And dust
Pre Chorus:
G
Some men die under the mountain just looking for gold
D/F#
Some die looking for a hand to hold
Chorus:
A
Well I carry this box to its proper place
And when I lower it down
I let you fade away
F G
I know that you would do this for me
A
I'd serve you drugs on a silver plate
If I thought it would help you get away
F G
I hope that you would do this for me
A
(For the breakdown, it's really just drums and noise)
Bridge: (I'm iffy about these lyrics, I can't hear them clearly)
A
I'm slowly bringing you down from the Heavenly gates
A
Now I'm drowning in the flood I made
F
Well explain myself to me on the other side
G
I'll watch from Heaven when I die
Out-chorus:
A
Well I carry this box to the proper place
And when I lower it down
I let you fade away
F G
I know that you would do this for me
A
I'd serve you drugs on a silver plate
If I thought it would help you get away
F G
I hope that you would do this for me
Outro: Play Main riff.
This is a very straightforward song, but still f*cking amazing. Brand New is an amazing band.
