G  Bm


[Verse 1]
G                      Bm
Salt of the earth, my friend
      G                      Bm
It's all that we are in the end
           G                              Bm
Well, you trapped down all the lines you drew
     G                                                  Bm
And I can take the hit but I'm sorry, I don't want the bruise


[Pre-Chorus]
 C
Your voice gets a little loud
 Cm                                     G       Bm
When there's nothing to talk about, you shout, dear
 C
And I'll find my lights fading out
Cm
More and more by the hour
         G       Bm
It gets dark in here


[Chorus]
            C      Cm      G
If you got time enough for me
           C        Cm        G
Sing me a song and send me to sleep
          C        Cm           G
Slip into my headspace while I dream
          C             Cm        G
Spin me a yarn, wrap it up around me


[Interlude]
G   Bm


[Verse 2]
G                 Bm
Dust to dust, my friend
 G
Well, you're only blood and bones
                                          Bm
And I know your heart's at war with your head
     G                Bm
I am sure it hurt to see
                  G
You're more than I'll ever have
                        Bm
And more than I'll ever be


[Pre-Chorus]
 C
I know it's a little late
Cm
My timing was never great
          G        Bm
But I'm calling, dear
C
I just wanted to let you know
Cm
That I won't bother you anymore
        G                   Bm
I'll be gone this time next year


[Chorus]
            C      Cm      G
If you got time enough for me
           C        Cm        G
Sing me a song and send me to sleep
          C        Cm           G
Slip into my headspace while I dream
          C             Cm        G     Bm
Spin me a yarn, wrap it up around me
           C       Cm      G
If you got time enough for me
           C        Cm         G
Sing me a song and send me to sleep
                        C         Cm        G
I never thought that a lie could sound so sweet
                        C
Until you opened your mouth
        Cm              G
And you said you loved me
