[VERSE 1]
Em               D
Holding up tight in a drunken haze
Em                 D                    Em     D   | Em D
Shutting out light to stop the day from taking hold
    Em          D
You cling to me with bloody hands
Em               D                       Em      D  | Em D
Playing my part, this martyr's dance, it gets so old


[CHORUS]
Cmaj7
Hold me down
       D              G           D/F#     | Em D
If you have to drown, I will drown    with you
       C                      D
If you have to burn, I'll burn in hell with you

[VERSE 2]
     Em           D
I've put to death a hundred times
Em                D                  Em       D    | Em D |
Ghosts that haunt your weary mind as darkness grows
     Em                  D
Then love breaks through your bitter stare
     Em              D                Em      D | Em D |
With all my strength I cannot bear to let you go


[CHORUS]
Cmaj7
Hold me down
       D              G           D/F#     | Em D
If you have to drown, I will drown    with you
       C                      D
If you have to burn, I'll burn in hell with you


[BRIDGE]
Am7           Em           D                G   D6/F#
    If I can't  pull you up to breathe with me again,
Am7               Em                D
    Then your pain  is mine to share tonight

    This fight will take us

[FINAL CHORUS]
Cmaj7
Hold me down
       D              G           D/F#   | Em D
If you have to drown, I will drown    with you
       C                      D
If you have to burn, I'll burn in hell with you
Cmaj7     D
     I'll burn in hell with you
Cmaj7     D
     I'll burn in hell with you
