D
We've been stuck out here in
the hallway for way, way too long
I'm at a loss, I'm at a loss,
I'm losing grip, the fabric's ripped
Go back to sleep, let me drive,
let me think, let me figure it out
How to get us back to the place where
we were when we first went out
Chorus:
I'll tell you about it some time, the time we left
I'll tell you about it some time, the time we left
Losin' parents, losin' sense,
I don't know what we should do
Became a father when I was still a son,
she brings it out in you
See you at the end of the party with your
wild white eyes
And fillin' up the teacup with gin in
your secret postcard life
Chorus - x2
We leave our saviors wrapped around
the necks of new machines
Or at the ends of threads that hold their
bodies to the ground
And then the men who look a little like
they feel like me
Offered them some bottled water,
then they cut 'em down
I came back to see if you were here,
but everything was different
Your voice was low, you blended in,
I could barely hear you speak
You were always my last second bright spot
in the distance
Thought that you were somethin' good that
I would always keep
I'll still destroy you someday,
sleep well, beast; you as well, beast
I'll still destroy you someday,
sleep well, beast; you as well, beast
I'll still destroy you someday,
sleep well, beast; you as well, beast
I'll still destroy you someday,
sleep well, beast; you as well, beast | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsD  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
