Drilled A Wire Through My Cheek Chords

(ver. 1)
Blue October
[Intro]
 
Bbm Ab F Bbm Ab F
 
 
[Verse]
 
  Bbm
I try to stay on top of you
                  F
To hold your body down
     Bbm                                            F
Your shaking seems to hinder every grasp that I had found
       Bbm
Moving every inch around me
                       F
To defuse your private bomb
  Bbm                                                F
I stretch myself surrounding and protecting you from harm
        Bbm                                                 F
I use a wallet for your mouth so when you bite you will not bleed
            Bbm                                              F
I drilled a wire through my cheek and let it down and out my sleeve
               Bbm                                               F
And now you're pulling out the best of me yeah, which never ever comes
     Bbm                                                    F
This wire's all that's left of me and it's hooked within my gums within my gums
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Bbm                          Db      C       Bbm
So drill it, so drill it, so hard, I feel it
    Eb    F Bbm                            Db      C       Bbm
(So drain it) so drill it, so drill it, so hard, I feel it
               Eb    F
(You've got to drain it)
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
   Bbm                                                F
As proof to show I'd bleed for this I'd cut myself to shame
   Bbm                                              F
To get to know this masochist who's stolen my first name
   Bbm                                             F
Pretending he's a teacher holding all my weight at ease
        Bbm                                               F
But the teacher seems to split in two destroying both his knees
   Bbm                                           F
Now crawling I position myself below your broken wings
  Bbm                                                         F
I lift your feathered left arm where you hide your heart from me
        Bbm                                             F
I never noticed it was swollen with the touch of brutal pain
        Bbm                                                   F
I never knew a heart could live inside the rust from all your rain all your rain
 
 
[Chorus 2]
 
Bbm                          Db      C       Bbm
So drill it, so drill it, so hard, I feel it
    Eb    F Bbm                            Db      C       Bbm
(So drain it) so drill it, so drill it, so hard, I feel it
               Eb    F
(You've got to drain it)
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
         Bbm
I didn't think to bring a wash cloth or to rub away the dirt
  Bbm
Myself and I, we share this barely-beating heart of hurt
             Bbm
And when the hurt comes there's an argument
                  F
A fight to save a smile
  Bbm                                           F
A small attack on human tears to dry them for a while
  Bbm                                              F
A dream we all should count on, yeah, a vision I believe
         Bbm                                          F
In where confidence is found attached to wires on our sleeve
         Bbm
In where loneliness is history
                          F
Told to pack his sh*t and leave
          Bbm                                           F
And where guidance is a fortune told to help in time of need
          Bbm                                         F
And where crying isn't secret, it's the art of how we grieve
    Bbm                                        F
And lessons are the key to every goal I will achieve, I will achieve
 
 
[Chorus 3]
 
Bbm                          Db      C       Bbm
So drill it, so drill it, so hard, I feel it
    Eb    F Bbm                            Db      C       Bbm
(So drain it) so drill it, so drill it, so hard, I feel it
               Eb    F
(You've got to drain it)
 
Bbm                          Db      C       Bbm
So drill it, so drill it, so hard, I feel it
    Eb    F Bbm                            Db      C       Bbm
(So drain it) so drill it, so drill it, so hard, I feel it
               Eb    F
(You've got to drain it)
 
Bbm Db C Bbm Eb F
