Intro: 

Blake Speaks:
I tell you this
because as an artist
I think you'll understand


then
G#m--A-- x4


Verse 1:
G#m
   I'll be quiet 
   A
to keep you quiet
G#m
   Don't concern yourself 
     A
with my slow dying
C#m
   Through the vents 
  A
I hear you sigh
C#m
   I don't get too 
           A
high these days
G#m
    Your floor 
   A
is my ceiling
C#m
   Lights out 
    A
you can't come in


Refrain:
F#m               G#m
   If you don't remind me
B             C#m
   I won't forget you
F#m             G#m
   If you don't ask
          A
I won't upset you, I am-


Chorus 1:
C#m     B
   -jet black
    A
I am stone cold
C#m    B            A
   Jet black to the center
E        B      C#m    A
   Funny like a funeral
E         B      C#m    A
   I need you to bury me


Post Chorus: G#m--A-- x2


Verse 2:
G#m
   White noise in 
A
black room dust
G#m
   These hands long 
    A
for one last touch
C#m          A
   Hourglass all 
out of trust
C#m
   I don't scratch 
           A
so I won't itch
G#m
   I don't reach 
           A
so I won't miss
C#m        A
   I taste our last kiss


(Repeat Refrain)
(Repeat Chorus 1)


Bridge:
B             C#m
  This is the cure the 
            A
same as the symptom
           E
Simple and pure
              F#m
break to keep fixing
          A
Patiently nurse
            C#m  A
patient and nurse
B             C#m
  This is the part 
           A
I wouldn't show you
                   E
The part where you say
              F#m
"I don't even know you"
             A
This is your cue
             C#m    B
Be glad it's through
I Am-


Chorus 2:
C#m     B
   -jet black
    A
I am stone cold
C#m    B            A
   Jet black to the center
E        B      C#m    A
   Funny like a funeral
E         B      C#m    A--A--
   I need you to bury me
