B
Lay my bones
G#m
At the feet of the ministry
G
I need the guilt and the company
F#m
I need the chance to be judged
E
And then long forgotten
B
Lately I just can't shake it
G#m
I count the days in seconds and minutes
G F#m
Hours and hours are subtle as shards of glass
E
In the skin
C#m B
So lay with me
C#m B E B
I could use the company
E B
You could help me ease
B
These bones
Are like maps and keys
C#m
Where they took their hits
And they felt those teeth
G#m
There's a story hidden
Underneath
E
If you dig in deep
Will you find relief?
B
For these bones
Shudder all night long
C#m
The hammer drops
Another scar
G#m
For these bones
But I know
E
They're only my second home.

B G#m
Naked and under the cover of night
G
It's just a matter of time 'til I'm
F#m
Counted and measured and filed
E
And then long forgotten
B
Forgive my manner of speaking
G#m
I know it's quick, but the clock is still ticking
G F#m
And I've got a few words left burning holes on my tongue
E
I've been saving them
C#m B
So lay with me
C#m B E B
I could use the company
E B
You could help me ease

No you won't go down alone

G#m
There's a story hidden
Underneath
E
If you dig in deep
And you find relief
E
For these bones
'Cause I know
That you won't go down alone.
