Em 
(6 beats)


[Chorus]
 
    Em        C
I'm bleeding out
          G                 D
So if the last thing that I do
   Em          C
Is bring you down 
     G             D
I'll bleed out for you 
     Em     
So I bare my skin 
      C
And I count my sins 
      G                   D
And I close my eyes and I take it in
    Em        C
I'm bleeding out 
    G                 D
I'm bleeding out for you 
    Em
For you 


[Instrumental]

Em  C  G  D  (x2)


[Verse]

         Em      C
When the day has come 
          G           D
That I've lost my way around 
        Em      C
And the seasons stop 
    G                D
And hide beneath the ground 
         Em        C
When the sky turns grey 
    G             D
And everything is screaming 
       Em    C
I will reach inside 
        G                D
Just to find my heart is beating 
       Em         C
Oh you tell me to hold on 
       G          D
Oh you tell me to hold on 
    Em           C
But innocence is gone 
    G                 D
And what was right is wrong 


[Chorus]

          Em         C
Cause I'm bleeding out 
          G                 D
So if the last thing that I do 
   Em         C
Is bring you down 
     G             D
I'll bleed out for you 
     Em      
So I bare my skin 
      C 
And I count my sins 
      G                   D
And I close my eyes and I take it in 
    Em       C
I'm bleeding out 
    G                D
I'm bleeding out for you
    Em 
For you 


[Verse]

         Em      C
When the hour is nigh 
    G               D
And hopelessness is sinking in 
        Em         C
And the wolves all cry 
   G                   D
To fill the night with hollering 
          Em       C
When your eyes are red 
    G            D
And emptiness is all you know
         Em       C 
With the darkness fed 
G              D
I will be your scarecrow 
Em             C
You tell me to hold on 
       G          D
Oh you tell me to hold on 
    Em           C
But innocence is gone 
    G                 D
And what was right is wrong 


[Chorus]

          Em       C
Cause I'm bleeding out
          G                 D
So if the last thing that I do 
   Em        C
Is bring you down 
     G             D
I'll bleed out for you 
     Em 
So I bare my skin 
      C
And I count my sins 
      G                   D
And I close my eyes and I take it in 
    Em       C
I'm bleeding out 
    G                D
I'm bleeding out for you 
    Em
For you

[Chorus]

      Em           C
Cause I'm bleeding out 
          G                 D
So if the last thing that I do 
   Em        C
Is bring you down 
     G             D
I'll bleed out for you 
     Em
So I bare my skin

And I count my sins 
      G                   D

I'm bleeding out 
    G                D
I'm bleeding out for you 
    Em
For you
