they're simple one finger barres

[Intro]
E5add#11   E5
E5add#11   E5
Em

[Verse 1]
Em
You were alone and you were alive
Em
Among the walkin' dead
Em
He was a liar, could not atone
Em
Still he went to your head

[Chorus]
         Bm11       Am11      
He said, "I love you baby like 
 Bm11        Am11
a miner loves gold
Bm11              Am11       
   And this will never grow 
Bm11
old"

[Verse 2]
Em
Lost in the ether, down in the blind 
Em
And not a word was said
Em
But he was neither vicious or kind
                    E5
As he lay there and bled

[Break]

Em         Em        Em        
E5

[Pre Chorus]
Bm11           Am11          
His hands were on you and it 
Bm11          Am11
felt just the same
Bm11        Am11            
As when he didn't know your
Bm11
name

[Chorus]
         Bm11       Am11      
He said, "I love you baby like 
 Bm11        Am11
a miner loves gold
Bm11              Am11       
   And this will never grow 
Bm11
old"

[Verse 3]
Em
Darkness will cover you
Em
A church in ruins
Em
There's nothing left to feel
Em
Goodbye lover, this is your doing
                    E5
A heart against the wheel

[Outro]
