|  C G  |  C G  |  C G  |  C G  |  

C                              G 
Things are falling down on me 
C                        G 
Heavy things I could not see 
 |  C G  |  C G  |  

C                        G 
When I finally came around 
C                              G 
Something small would pin me down 
 |  C G  |  C G  |  

F                     G (hold) 
When I try to step aside 

I move to where they'd hoped I'd be 
 |  C G  |  C G  |   
 
F                        C 
Vanessa calls me on the phone 
F                        C 
Reminding me I'm not alone 
F                        C 
I fuss and quake and cavitate 
                        G 
I try to speak and turn to stone 
 

F                        C 
Tilly reaches through my vest 
F                        C 
To do the thing that she does best 
F                        C 
She probes and tears my ventricles 
                        G 
Steals my one remaining breath 
 

 |  C G  |  C G  |  
 
F                        C 
Stumbling as I fall from Grace 
F                        C 
She needs my vision to replace 
F                        C 
Her ailing sight throughout the night 
                        G 
Leaving two holes in my face  


F                        C 
Mary was a friend I'd say 
F                  C 
'til one summer day 
F                        C 
She borrowed everything I owned 
                      G 
And then simply ran away,
