C#m Fb
When I called on my nursemaid
C#m Fb A
Come sit by my side
C#m Fb
But she cuts through my ribcage
C#m Fb B Cm
And pushes the pills deep in my eyes
C#m Fb
The taste was much sweeter
C#m Fb A
Than chlorine and wine
C#m Fb
And my doctor’s unable
C#m Fb B Cm
To cut through cable that leads to my mind
C#m Fb
In spite of the winter
C#m Fb A
There’s ways to keep warm
C#m Fb
Whatever you give me
C#m Fb B Cm
Please know that I’ll ask you for more
C#m Fb
The day I stopped swimming
C#m Fb A
And came out of the tide
C#m Fb
I’d never felt so uncomfortably numb
C#m Fb B Cm
Here by your side

Don’t lay me down

My place in the ground
