Lead Poisoning

[Intro]
| G | - | - | - |

[Verse 1]
G
Choking slowly,
Broken hearted.
Bm Em D G
        Don't look now,
Here's what you started.
Bm Em D

[Pre-Chorus]
Cm                G                     D
  And I swore I'd be there 'til the end,
                Em   D               Cm
We're bitter now  but better friends.
                                    D
I climbed out limbless to the ledge,
           D#dim             E
To bask in my   last true regret.

[Chorus]
Cm               G         D   E
Lay my heavy head here down to sleep.
    Cm                   G       D        E
Now pray to a abraxas for my soul to keep.
Cm               G         D   E
Lay my heavy head here down to dream.
Cm                D         G
Wake up with this lead poisoning.

[Verse 2]
G
Sobbing softly,
Lost and hollow.
Bm Em D     G
       This fever dream,
Tough pill to swallow.
Bm Em D

[Pre-Chorus]
Cm            G                    D
  I swore I'd be there 'til the end
                 Em    D           Cm
You're better off  your bitterness.
                                   D
I climbed out lifeless to the edge,
            D#dim           Em
I waved goodbye  and leapt I

[Chorus]
Cm               G         D   Em
Lay my heavy head here down to sleep.
    Cm                   G       D        Em
Now pray to a abraxas for my soul to keep.
Cm               G         D   Em
Lay my heavy head here down to dream.
 Cm            G         D         G
Awaking to the blood and sweat and screams.

[Verse 3]
G
Woke up here on Monday morning,
D
This old treat on this dark corner,
Em                             Cm
Waiting here for what tomorrow brings.
G
Silver lake mercury mining,
D
This mistake no silver lining,
Em                                 Cm
Waiting for a bullet train to bring  me my lead poisoning.

[Solo]
G D Em Cm
         My lead poisoning.
G D Em Cm

[Chorus]
Em
Cm               G         D   Em
Lay my heavy head here down to sleep.
    Cm                   G       D        Em
Now pray to a abraxas for my soul to keep.
Cm               G         D   Em
Lay my heavy head here down to dream.
Cm                G       D G
Wake up with this lead poisoning.
