      Am          F         C        G


[Verse 1]

    Am
The procession went smoothly, 
    F
the lights low and dim. 
  C
I raised my clear glass, 
      G
and I toast times to heaven. 
    Am
But you're not the same love
     F
that I used to know. 
           C
Well, I'll break this guitar 
    G
and board up these windows. 
     Am                  F                   C
Just make sure they know...that I won't return.

[Chorus]

Am                   F
With my bloody lips, 
                     C
and your broken arms, 
                G
we'll turn into one 
                        Am
and we'll sing the same song. 
                F
With my sinking feet 
               C
and your heavy heart, 
             G
no don't you start.

no don't you start this again.

[Intro Riff]

[Verse 2 (Same chord progression)]
This house screams of memories
and half-written songs,
with the chance of completion
depending on love.
This disconnected phone,
well, it is seldom to speak.
Although, when it does
its so harsh and complete. 

[Chorus]

Am, F,
        C               G
No dont you start, dont you start. [X2]

[Intro Riff]

Then strum a G chord.


Thats it! You're done!
Do tell me if you like it :)
