I am a dead man I’m crawling into a trap
Verse 1: F#m A horizontal response I'm laying A down for you once Bm again You've taking F#m what's granted I've said goodbye to my friends I've thrown myself head first A into this Close the Bm curtain and strand me
Refrain 1: F#m Found myself lost again A With even more excuses BmF#m And even less concern Bound and gagged but A I enjoy it You seduce Bm your prisoner Before F#mE/G# you take your turn
Chorus 1: A So lay me down in the E/G#E field and put me under F#m the trees in the tall D grass Where they won’t A find me Enjoying silence E/G# and peace Until the EF#m sirens they come back DA screaming Taking me away E/G# I’ve given all I can give
Verse 2: F#m so don’t let me Go back between Woodward and A Cass Cracked concrete Bm with broken glass This F#m run down block with my
name in lights Your ABm saving grace my final rights
Refrain 2: F#m 11 Miles from where A I was when I conceded Bm my head Embraced my F#m lost control Innocence in a state so pure A You hear the demons Bm Calling to take F#mE/G# back what you stole
Chorus 2: A So lay me down in the E/G#E field and put me under F#m the trees in the tall D grass Where they won’t A find me Enjoying silence E/G# and peace Until the EF#m sirens they come back D screaming Taking me A away I lost a piece of E/G#E myself And I forgot F#m to slow down and just breathe And DA it’s scaring me I’ve given all E/G# I can give EF#m So let me go I am a dead man I am a dead man And it’s the only way it can end
Breakdown: F#m x4
Bridge: F#m I don’t know who’s side I’m on anymore And there’s no starting over
Chorus 3: A So lay me down in the E/G#E field and put me under F#m the trees in the tall D grass Where they won’t A find me Enjoying silence E/G# and peace Until the EF#m sirens they come back D screaming Taking me A away I lost a piece of E/G#E myself And I forgot F#m to slow down and just breathe And DA it’s scaring me I’ve given all E/G# I can give E F#m(hold) So let me go
