Wristcutter's Lullaby (Fischer Z)

 

Album: Red Skies Over Paradise

 

{verse}

Gm Cm

It's hard for you

Dm Gm Cm

Seeing things the way you do

Dm Gm Cm

When you gave up that way I knew

Dm Gm Cm Dm

You might get hurt again

 

 

{chorus}

Gm Cm Dm

I ran, when the police tried to contact me

Gm Cm Dm

I ran, I was so much afraid

Gm Cm Dm

I ran, till my legs buckled under me

Gm Cm Dm

I ran, but I wish that I'd stayed

 

 

{verse}

When I agreed to leave

I didn't think you had to give

Another demonstration like you did

And hurt yourself again

 

 

I ran ...

 

 

{bridge}

F D#

And now you're lying injured in your bed

F D#

I feel responsible for what you did

F D# F

I sometimes wish that it was me instead of you

 

 

{verse}

I want to say

I'm sorry that I couldn't stay

Although I let you down today

You won't get hurt again

 

 

I ran ...
