SAM DT’s

SITTING THERE AT HOME YOU'LL FIND HIM
WAITING ALL ALONE I KNOW
HE CAN'T GO OUT AND FACE THE DEMOLITION
DERBY TIME
AND THERE'S JUST TOO MUCH NOISE

THE DOOR IS LOCKED THE LIGHTS ALL ON
THE FIRE BURNING BRIGHTLY, HEY BUT
AROUND THE CORNERS ARE THE SHADOWS
WAITING THERE TO PULL HIM DOWN AND SWALLOW
AND I KNOW
HE CALLED TO SAY SO

SO FAR, IT'S 13 DAYS
STILL, IT'S JUST NOT LONG FOR SUCH A CHANGE
YOU FEEL SO HOLLOW
SO COLD
BUT I SAID TRY IT FOR AWHILE
JUST ONE MORE DAY TO GET AWAY
IF YOU COULD ADD ANOTHER ON I BET
THE WORST WOULD START TO FADE
AH YES, BUT I KNOW
IT'S HARD
HARD TO LET GO

IT'S A CHAIN OF FIRE
AND DUNGEON DAYS
AIN'T GOT NOTHING LEFT
SO, GET AWAY

SAW MY FRIEND GO OFF THE EDGE
NOT SO LONG AGO
THAT MEAN OLD JONES HAD GOT HIM BY THE THROAT
A CHOKING STRANGLEHOLD
I HEARD HIM CRYING
WANTING HELP

SO, I SAID IT TAKES TIME
BUT ASK FOR MORE
YOU EVEN KNOW HOW LONG
CAN YOU SPEND WHAT YOU CAN’T AFFORD?
ARE YOU SO LUCKY?
SO, BOLD
AH, BUT I KNOW

IT'S A CHAIN OF FIRE
AND DUNGEON DAYS
AIN'T GOT NOTHING LEFT
SO, GET AWAY

(DGDGBD) capo 2
