This is the studio version from the album MEAT

D                                A
It's so cold here and I miss you.
                           Bm
And I can't help feeling broken.
D                             A
I treat myself like I'm not fragile.
                                            Bm
Like there's no care to be taken.
D                                                A
And I was up last night just thinking
                                         Bm
A hundred reasons to be sorry.
D                                                A
Why don't you come and lay beside me
                                                         Bm
Since there's too much now that's vacant.

*REFF:
         G                                       D
And oh the time that we keep wasting,
                      A
Like we don't know
                                Bm
The joy that's hard to bear.
             G               D
For the ground that we stand on
                      A
Won't long be there.

D                          A
I pray that we will never tire
                                   Bm
Of the work that lies before us.
D                                  A
I feel that I will be the weak one
                                           Bm
And that you will have to carry me.
D                                A
I hope there never is a phone call
                                                 Bm
To say that it's too dark to keep trying.
D                                  A
I hope there's time left to discover
                                    Bm
How to cry at all the beauty.

*Back to REFF

D                                                A
I guess it's me there in the mirror
                                        Bm
But I can't say that I know him.
D                                          A
When you tell me that you love me
                                            Bm
There's no reason I should doubt you.
