These Bones Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C]

[Verse 1]
[G]Lay my bones
At the feet of the [Em]ministry
I need the guilt and [Eb]the company
I need the chance to be [D]judged
And then [C]long forgotten

[Verse 2]
[G]Lately I just can't shake it
[Em]I count the days
in seconds and minutes
[Eb]Hours and hours are subtle
as shards of [D]glass
In [C]the skin

[Verse 3]
So [Em]lay with me
I could use the [C]company
You could help me ease

[Verse 4]
[G]These bones
Are like maps and keys
Where they [Am]took their hits
And they felt those teeth
[Em]Ther[Am]e's a

[Verse 5]
[Em]story hidden
Underneath
If you [C]dig in deep
Will you find relief?

[Verse 6]
For [G]these bones
Shudder all night long
The [Am]hammer drops
Another scar
[D]For the[Em]se bones
But I know
They're [C]only my second home

[Verse 7]
[G]Naked and under the cover [Em]of night
It's just a matter [Eb]of time 'til I'm
Counted and measured [D]and filed
And [Dsus4]then long[C] forgotten

[Verse 8]
For[G]give my manner of speaking
[Em]I know it's quick,
but the clock is still ticking
And [Eb]I've got a few words left
[Dsus4]burning holes on my t[D]ongue
I've been [C]saving them

[Verse 9]
So [Em]lay with me
I could use the [C]company
You could help me ease

[Verse 10]
[G]These bones
Are like maps and keys
Where [Am]they took their hits
And they felt those teeth
[Em]There's a story

[Verse 11]
hidden
Underneath
If you [C]dig in deep
Will you find relief?

[Verse 12]
For [G]these bones
Shudder all night long
The [Am]hammer drops
Another scar
[Em]For these bones

[Verse 13]
But I [Em]know
They're [C]only my second home
[G]

[Verse 14]
[D]
No you won't go down [Em]alone[C]
No you won't go down [G]alone[D]
No you won't go down [Em]alone[C]
No you won't go down alone

[Verse 15]
So [Em]lay with me
I could [C]use the company
You could help me ease

[Verse 16]
[G]These bones
Are like maps and keys
Where [Am]they took their hits
And they felt those [D]teeth
[Em]There's a story

[Verse 17]
hidden
Underneath
If you [C]dig in deep
Will you find relief?

[Verse 18]
[G]These bones
Are like maps and keys
[Am]Where they took their hits
And they felt those teeth
[D]There's a story

[Verse 19]
[Em]hidden
Underneath
[C]If you dig in deep
Will you find relief?

[Verse 20]
For [C]these bones
'Cause I know
That you [Em]won't go down alone
