[G] [Bm]
[G]Salt of the earth, my [Bm]friend, it’s [G]all that we are in the [Bm]end
Well, you [G]trapped down all the lines you [Bm]drew
And [G]I can take the hit but, I’m sorry, I don’t want the [Bm]bruise


[C]Your voice gets a little loud
[Cm]When there’s nothing to talk about, you [G]shout, [Bm]dear
[C]And I’ll find my lights fading out, [Cm]more and more by the hour
It gets [G]dark in [Bm]here


If you got [C]time [Cm]enough for [G]me
Sing me a [C]song and [Cm]send me to [G]sleep
Slip into [C]my [Cm]headspace while I [G]dream
Spin me a [C]yarn, wrap it [Cm]up around [G]me


[G] [Bm]
[G]Dust to dust, my [Bm]friend, [G]well, you’re only blood and bones
And I know your heart’s at war with your [Bm]head
I am [G]sure it hurt to [Bm]see, you’re more than [G]I’ll ever have
And more than I’ll ever [Bm]be


[C]I know it’s a little late, [Cm]my timing was never great
But I’m [G]calling, [Bm]dear, [C]I just wanted to let you know
[Cm]That I won’t bother you anymore, I’ll be [G]gone this time next [Bm]year


If you got [C]time [Cm]enough for [G]me
Sing me a [C]song and [Cm]send me to [G]sleep
Slip into [C]my [Cm]headspace while I [G]dream
Spin me a [C]yarn, wrap it [Cm]up around [G]me[Bm]
If you got [C]time [Cm]enough for [G]me
Sing me a s[C]ong and s[Cm]end me to s[G]leep
I never thought that a l[C]ie could s[Cm]ound so sw[G]eet
Until you opened your [C]mouth
And you [Cm]said you loved [G]me
