Oh, oh, oh
Oh-oh, oh, oh oh (etc)

Am		F	C
Oh will you come home soon
F	C	G
Come home soon and save me
Am	
I'm so bored
F	C
Soul destroying gloom
F	C	G		G
The walls are closing in all around

Oh will you find me now
Find me out and show me
I can't get up
Life threatening doom
Dragging me darker and down

CHORUS:

F/C	C	G
Take my hand
Dragging me down
F/C	C	G
Through the ground
Darker and down
Down down down
All the way down

INTRO

Am		F	C
Oh wont you come for me
F	C	G
Comfort me in the night
Am		F	C
I'm so tired of feeling sick and tired
F	C	G
Dying at life's door all the time

Oh I'm locked inside
Trapped inside this body
I can't get out
And there's not enough room
I'm glued to the back of this bone mask	

BREAK

CHORUS

INTRO


That's roughly how it goes, it's played finger style so just experiment.
