Lifeline

Intro: Aadd9

Am
I feel the knife at my throat
                    Em
and it cuts and it burns
 Am
Have you no mercy?
                            Em
you laugh as I twist and I turn
   Dm
Crushing the air in my chest
                          Am   G
till there is no air to breathe
 Dm
Pray there's a way to escape
                   C  E
but the joke is on me

               F                 Dm
Show me some hope, show me some light
                Am                 G
'cause I got nothing left in me tonight
            F           Dm
If I don't go, If I say no
          Am  G
is it the end?
    F                           G        Am   G
Somebody tell me, have I just wasted a lifetime?
               F                 Dm
Show me some hope, God, it's so cold
             Am
throw me a lifeline
          F            Dm
It's so cold, it's so cold
             A  Dm F  A Dm F Aadd9
throw me a lifeline

Am                                         Em
All too familiar so why are we back here again?
 Am                                             Em
Tell me you know how it feels to be killing a friend
    Dm                                           Am  G
Screaming in silence, there's no way of saving myself
    Dm
If there's no redemption
                 C  E
I'll see you in hell

               F                 Dm
Show me some hope, show me some light
                Am                 G
'cause I got nothing left in me tonight
            F           Dm
If I don't go, If I say no
          Am  G
is it the end?
    F                           G        Am   G
Somebody tell me, have I just wasted a lifetime?
               F                 Dm
Show me some hope, God, it's so cold
             Am
throw me a lifeline
          F            Dm
It's so cold, it's so cold
             A C Dm F             A C Dm F
throw me a lifeline, throw me a lifeline

Aadd9    Dm        C    E
Now you gone and done it

F Dm Am G
Oooh
            F           Dm
If I don't go, If I say no
          Am  G
is it the end?
    F                           G        Am   G
Somebody tell me, have I just wasted a lifetime?

Show me some hope, God, it's so cold
             Am
throw me a lifeline
