Half Step Down (D♯G♯C♯F♯A♯D♯)

Intro

8 bars, one bar of 4/4 per chord shown)

Well you lie on your back

And mill through the scars

So careful you are to

Surre nder a thing

But Jesus ain't coming

So don't waste your time

Not yours and not min e

You're only drea ming

And while you were scheming

With silver machi nes

Far above the leaves

I snuck into your sce ne

Don't lie there, lurking

Behind your troubled wal ls

Wicked as they are

You're not dece iving

And if I could find your heart

I would pull it from your chest

And smash you with my fist

Til' it was be ating

And if there's a hole inside

Heaven in your bed

'Cause the angel that you kiss ed

Just left you ble eding

I know it ain't easy

To keep roundin' on

When the voices in your skull

Are always screaming

Broke i nto your prison

And dropped the sleeping guards

Painted flowers on the ba rs

And snuck you out the yard

Paralysed and gleaming

With visions of new st ates

We're wrapped in our embra ce

While we were dre aming
