Gaslight

Am D G C G Am D G C G Am The wheels are turning D Broken machinery G It grinds below us C Em And all around I see Am The crooked ceiling D The old familiar halls G The dirty paper C That’s covering the walls Am The shattered staircase D The bed I’m bleeding in G We’ve tried to fight this C Em But we can never win Am D And in the gaslight that brings both life and death G C G If it’s like last night this could be my last breath Am D And so I hold tight to any hands I see G C Em But nothing’s alright they’re always watching me Am D G C G And no one’s coming, coming to take me home Am D G C G And no one’s coming, coming to take me home Am He takes my picture D Although I don’t know why G His hands are shaking C Em Although I see him try Am To look collected D He thinks it doesn’t show G We are connected C But what he doesn’t know Am Is when the guard comes D To take me away G I will be tortured C Em Until the break of day Am D And in the gaslight that brings both life and death G C G If it’s like last night this could be my last breath Am D And so I hold tight to any hands I see G C Em But nothing’s alright they’re always watching me Am D G C G And no one’s coming, coming to take me home Am D G C G And no one’s coming, coming to take me home Am He’s at the window D He’s always looking down G As we are beaten C Em How can this fucking town Am Not know what’s happening D To all their little girls G They’ve got the Pirate C G They’re cutting off her curls Am And she is screaming D They won’t leave her alone G And I am dreaming C Em Am D Of joys I have never known G C Em Am D G C Em Am D G C G Am D G C G Am At least I’m breathing D At least I have my wits G But when the cart comes C G Who’s buried in the pits Am Below my window D I hear a horse go by G And in the next cell C Em An inmate starts to cry Am We try our best though D To quiet down the fuss G We know tomorrow C Em It could be one of us Am D And in the gaslight that brings both life and death G C G If it’s like last night this could be my last breath Am D And so I hold tight to any hands I see G C Em But nothing’s alright they’re always watching me Am D G C Em And no one’s coming, coming to take me home Am D G C G And no one’s coming, coming to take me home Am D N.C. No one's coming, coming to take me home
