         Am        FAnd I am losing my hold

          F                        GThey will break down these walls
            CThere's apparitions behind the bedroom blinds
        DThere is black ink in the bathroom sink
       FIf the gunmen don't let her go
       G                  FOr the snake outside will swallow the house

           F               GFrom these shadows inside
             C'Cause these dreams I have are so much bigger
         DThan the blade of a knife or a shotgun's trigger
       FIf the gunmen don't let her go
       G                  FOr the snake outside will swallow the house
