B
Lay my bones 
                  G#m
At the feet of the ministry 
                         G
I need the guilt and the company 
                       F#m
I need the chance to be judged 
         E
And then long forgotten 


B
Lately I just can't shake it 
G#m
I count the days in seconds and minutes 
G                                      F#m
Hours and hours are subtle as shards of glass 
       E
In the skin 


   C#m B
So lay with me 
C#m      B       E  B
 I could use the company 
       E          B
You could help me ease 


B
These bones 

Are like maps and keys 
           C#m
Where they took their hits 

And they felt those teeth 
          G#m
There's a story hidden 

Underneath 
       E
If you dig in deep 

Will you find relief? 
    B
For these bones 

Shudder all night long 
    C#m
The hammer drops 

Another scar  
    G#m
For these bones 

But I know 
       E
They're only my second home.

B                            G#m
Naked and under the cover of night 
                      G
It's just a matter of time 'til I'm 
                         F#m
Counted and measured and filed 
         E
And then long forgotten 
   B            
Forgive my manner of speaking 
  G#m        
I know it's quick, but the clock is still ticking 
    G                                             F#m
And I've got a few words left burning holes on my tongue 
          E
I've been saving them 

   C#m B
So lay with me 
C#m      B       E  B
 I could use the company 
       E          B
You could help me ease

E  B  F#m 
           No you won't go down alone 
G#m  E                        B  
        No you won't go down alone 
F#m                              G#m               
     No you won't go down alone 
E                       E 
  No you won't go down alone 


   C#m (let ring)
So lay with me 
                 E (let ring)

       E          B

    B
For these bones 

Show like maps and keys 
          C#m
Where they took their hits

And they felt those teeth  
          G#m      
There's a story hidden 

Underneath 
       E
If you dig in deep

And you find relief
    E
For these bones 

'Cause I know 
       
That you won't go down alone.
