[VERSE 1] 9/8
                | Dm             Bbmaj9          | F
We took down the  scarecrows and co  -  vered the  windows
                                               (12/8)
              | Dm           Bbmaj9           | F
I noticed your  fingers were trem - bling like  leaves
            F/E | Dm              Bbmaj9      | F
You made me a     shelter in your clo - set of  skeletons
                                             (12/8)
                 | Dm          Bbmaj9       | F 
I go through your  records and play  "Let it  Bleed"


[VERSE 2] 9/8
                | Dm        Bbmaj9       | F
Black clouds are  moving as you   move in  -  side me
               | Dm             Bbmaj9     | F   |
You strip me of  pleasures, you hunt  and I  pray
              | Dm           Bbmaj9         | F
Repeating your  stories, you know  that they  bore me
         | Dm            Bbmaj9      | F   | |
Shining a  -  round me a ha  -  lo so  cold


[CHORUS] 12/8
C                        Gm
  Hey, the hero's on the move
                      Bbmaj9
  Yeah, that's what I wan - na do
                        (6/8 - 1 measure)
                         F
  And I'm gonna look down
C                                 Gm9
  Hey, hey I'm waiting for you to come down
                     Bbmaj9                  Dm
  So we could change places and be hounds of love
                    (6/8) (12/8)
C                    Gm7   Bbmaj9
  Leave the ground behind


[VERSE 3] 9/8
              Dm          Bbmaj9           F
Black hail is falling and he    won't stop calling
                                            (12/8)
            F/E Dm            Bbmaj9         F
You have to go  back there to find  your way home
                 Dm        Bbmaj9        F
I find the house empty, so hol - low yet tempting
                                      (12/8)
              Dm7   Dm     Bbmaj9      F
You left me a letter  that I'll  never read


[VERSE 4] 9/8
            Dm           Bbmaj9     F
I used to believe him, I used  to deceive him
                                         (12/8)
                Dm           Bbmaj9       F
My treasure was pride and so ea  -  sy to steal
                     Dm        Bbmaj9           F
And that's what they came for, that's what they aim for
                                       (12/8)
                 Dm          Bbmaj9     F
The storm is all o - ver and I'm   all alone

  Yeah, that's what I wan - na do
                        (6/8 - 1 measure)
                         F
  And I'm gonna look down
C                                 Gm9
  Hey, hey I'm waiting for you to come down
                     Bbmaj9                  Dm
  So we could change places and be hounds of love

  Leave the ground behind

[BRIDGE]
Gm      Bb         F           C
We are, we are the last of our kind
Gm      Bb         F             C
We are, we are the road that you mined
               Gm                   Bb
Stepped into a light, jumped into a lake
                F       C
Deeper than the grave I faked
                      Gm                        Bb
You know you'll never learn so watch me while I burn

[OUTRO]
             Dm         Bb           F
I opened the windows to feel how the wind blows
               Dm           Bb            F
Sure there's a new scent of spring in the air
               Dm       Bb                F
And baby, it's funny, I know you're still running
           F/E  Dm       Bb          F
I left you be - hind me, now I stand still
