Verse 1:
These hospital walls
are the palest of white
here in this desert
they're reciting my last rites
the smell of these halls
brings temporary comfort
as the oxygen flows
through my blood
A B(hold)
el corazon was
poisoned tonight
Chorus:
she's on her
A B B7(hold)
eight 8 of 9
Verse 2:
when half of all your
prayers are insincere
the other half are lies
here is this watermark
under this bridge
the point where
it all crested
rolled back and
drifted into the sea
i climb from this wreckage
as the smoke begins
to clear from my lungs
the closest of close calls
has happened tonight
it's time that i
made things right
for the first time
since the last time
let this moment of clarity
lift this curse that
has been cast upon me
Verse 3:
So appreciate
the good times
but don't take the
worst for granted
A B(hold)
cause you only get so
many second chances
Outro: E--Abm- x4, E(hold)
