Intro (played along with cute piano):
Dm Gm | Dm Gm | F Am (2)
The verses sung by Ryan are played the same way the intro is played:
Dm GmYou'd look nice in a grave.
Dm GmI smile at the moon; death is on my face
FAnd if you wait too long,
AmThen you'll never see the dawn again
The female verses have another pattern:
Dm | A# | Gm | A
Keep the proper pauses in between the phrases:
Dm A#"My skull is full ... of sunken ships,
Gm AMy heart's a prisoner ... to my ribs,
Dm A#We're flesh & bone ... when we're all alone,
Gm ABut together, forever, ... we'll live"
After a short pause, goes the interlude:
Dm Gm | Dm Gm
And the third and fourth verses:
Dm GmThere's gold in my heart,
Dm GmBut the winds took my sails through the dark,
FAnd if you wait too long,
Amthen you'll never see the dawn again.
Dm A#"He filled my heart, ... I did my best.
Gm ABut without the sun, ... I'm only shadows in a dress.
Dm A#`Cause if the full moon comes, ... our love is done,
Gm ASo forever, towards dark, ... we rise"
Outro (strum these heavily):
Dm | A# | Gm | A (4)
