[Verse 1]
Cm      F                       Cm
You (you) have never stood this close
                     F
To where you want to be
Cm      F                          Cm
You (you) have always waded in the shallows
        F                    Cm   Ab
Between me and the deep blue sea


[Pre-Chorus]
Fm              Bb           Cm    Ab
You would never want me to appear
Fm        Bb               Cm   Ab
You never want this to be over
Fm        Bb               Cm         Ab      Fm
You never want it to reach out to the edge of time


[Chorus]
Ab    Bb  Cm                  Ab
While you sleep in earthly delight
          Eb                  Gm
Someone's flesh is rotting tonight
        Ab       Cm
Like no other to you
            Eb              Bb
What you've done you cannot undo


[Verse 2]
Cm   F                     Cm
I (I) have always kept you closer
              F
Than you have known
Cm   F                   Cm
I (I) I am riding in the shadows
       F                   Cm    Ab
Behind you on a pale white horse


[Pre-Chorus]
Fm              Bb           Cm   Ab
You would never want me to appear
Fm        Bb              Cm    Ab
You never want this to be over


[Chorus]
          Eb                 Gm
Someone's flesh is rotting tonight
        Ab       Cm
Like no other to you
            Eb              Bb
What you've done you cannot undo
          Cm                  Ab
While you sleep in earthly delight
            Eb                    Gm
Still, your soul will suffer this plight
          Ab        Cm
Like your father in hell
            Eb                Bb
What you've sold you cannot unsell

Ab    Bb  Cm                  Ab
While you sleep in earthly delight

Someone's flesh is rotting tonight
        Ab       Cm
Like no other to you

What you've done you cannot undo

While you sleep in earthly delight
            Eb                    Gm
Still, your soul will suffer this plight
           Ab           Cm
But like a mother would save
        Eb                   Bb
Her own child from digging a grave
