Intro
Four measures of Dm (you might not want to play it that long)
Verse

A ------> Dm
Verse
Dm F Now there's blood in the waters, that I squeezed from this stone, here Bb A And we turned into our cheap wine. Dm F And I swallowed every drop, yes, I could feel my stomach rotting, Bb A Bb You were so supportive as I drank through the pain.
Chorus
Dm Bb F A Dm Bb Gm A You recognize this shape, it's the back of your hand. Dm Bb F A Dm Bb Gm A You placed it on my face here again, and again, yeah. Dm C Bb F A Dm And I don't wanna be the one who takes this place in vein.
Another four measures of Dm
