Senses Fail - Safe House


                 Gm                          F
  I'm climbing out   of the hole that I've been digging

                      Eb                              F
  throwing out all the blueprints I had drawn up for the safe house.

              Gm                        F
  I've stashed away enough food for forty days, gallons of water

       Eb                     F
  first aid and propane and some wine to entertain.


  Eb                           Bb
      I'm always planning for the worst.

             F
  I signed my will right after birth.

  Eb                    F
      I've got my eulogy rehearsed.


  Gm                Eb
      I fall to pieces    and I get weak in the knees

  Bb                F
         when I think about eternity.

  Gm                       Eb
      Have I been led astray?    Feeling like fate forgot me

  Bb                F                Gm
      He had the right name but the wrong street.


  Gm                              F
      I'm pulling nails out from the coffin

                    Eb
     I'm gasping for air. my eyes are full just

             F
     like the moon, I've got a silver bullet stare.

  Gm                          F
      The holy grail that I once thought was fiction but

         Eb                       F
      the fact is that it's not in communion with my thoughts.


  Eb                       Bb               F
      The vultures circle overhead, hanging like halos for the dead

  Eb                          F
      But I'm not suited for one yet.


  Gm                Eb
      I fall to pieces    and I get weak in the knees

  Bb                F
         when I think about eternity.

  Gm                       Eb
      Have I been led astray?    Feeling like they forgot me

  Bb                F                Eb
      He had the right name but the wrong street.



  Eb            Bb    F
      I'm a number    in a lottery.

  Eb                   Bb     F       Gm ...
      Life's a boardwalk game god rigged to cheat.



  Gm ... F ... Cm ... ...

  Gm ... F ... Cm ... ...



  Bb                 F             Eb
      As the snow falls all along the peaks

  My mind's an avalanche I'm digging through to reach

  Bb               F                   Eb
     All the things I tried to shove down deep

  My mind's an avalanche I'm digging through to reach.


              Eb             F
  and I could run but with its speed,

                  Gm       F  Eb ...
  I'm bound to be buried here underneath

         Eb              F
  A tidal wave triggered to teach that

            Gm         F     Eb
  life on an island isn't what it seems

                    Cm              Eb           F
  I'm cutting off my toes just so that I can spite my feet.


  Gm                Eb
      I fall to pieces    and I get weak in the knees

  Bb                F
         when I think about eternity.

  Gm                       Eb
      Have I been led astray?    Feeling like they forgot me

  Bb                F                Gm
      He had the right name but the wrong street.
