[Intro]
Em Am Em
[Verse 1]
Am Em
As I walk beneath the evening sky, the darkness closes in
Am Em
Victimised by my own mind, the violins start to sing
C G
Come to me, my dear, for you are what it takes
Em Am Em
To piece my heart together when the glass begins to break
[Verse 2]
Am Em
Standing by the moonlit lake, I waited all night long
Am Em
Searching for forgiveness after all that I've done wrong
C G
Come to me, my dear, for you have what it takes
Em Am Em
To rid me of my misery and look past my mistakes
[Chorus]
D C Am D
Oh, there's a beast that lives in the corner of my mind
C Am D Em Am Em
And you are the only one to make his eyes appear kind
[Verse 3]
Am Em
I called by my father's house and he closed the door on me
Am Em
He said you're no daughter of mine, and you never will be
C G
The birds all flew away from the echo of the gun
Am Em Am Em
Come to me, my dear, for you're the only one
Am Em
For you're the only one
[Chorus]
D C Am D
Oh, there's a beast that lives in the corner of my mind
C Am D
And you are the only one to make his eyes appear kind
[Break]
Em Am
La la la la la laaaa
Em Am
La la la la la la la la laaaa
Em Am
Laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
G Am Em
La la la la la la laaa
[Chorus]
D C Am D
Oh, there's a beast that lives in the corner of my mind
C Am D Em Am Em
And you are the only one to make his eyes appear kind
