[Gm] The rope that's wrapped [Eb] around me is cutting through [Am] my skin.
[G] And the doubts that have [Eb] surrounded me [Bb] are finding their [Am] way and I keep [Gm] it close [Eb] to me
like [Bb] a holy [Am] man prays in [Gm] my desperate [Eb] hour.
[Bb] It's better, [Am] better that [Cm] way.
_ [Dm] _ [Eb] So I'll come by and see you [Cm] _ [Dm] again.
_ [Eb] I'll be such a very [Cm] good friend.
[Dm] _ [Eb] Have mercy on [Bb] my soul.

[Gm] There's no [Eb] one here [Cm] they want to [F] hang [Gm] around.

[Bb] _ _ [Eb] I'll be just a very [Cm] good friend.
[Dm] I [Eb] will not look upon your face.
