E                                     C#m7  B
I've got a ticket, no turning back my destination

A           B            A       B
 The sea of trouble, the land of pain

A              B           A      B
You're sending me where it always rains

E                                    C#m7 B
Oh reconsider, I'm begging you, some hesitation

A           B        A   B
I'm holding on to my sanity

  A          B           A     B
I feel the beginning of emergency

F#                     A                B
 My hands are slipping, oh please don't let me fall into
[Chorus]

This hole in my heart that goes all the way to China

          A               B      A      B      A   B  A  B
You gotta fill it up with love before I fall inside   of

           E
This empty hole in my heart that goes all the way to China

               A             B         A                B        A   B  A  B  E

[Verse 2]
E                                    C#m7  B
I'm on a planet without a plan, it's oh so lonely

A         B              A      B
I need to see you to get out of here

A                 B              A    B
There's something deadly in this atmosphere

E                                   C#m7       B
I'm in a desert, without a drink of your sweet water

A          B           A       B
You're my oasis in the burning sand

A          B               A        B
I'm out of danger when you touch my hand

F#                   A             B
 Throw me a lifeline, I'm standing on the edge of

        E                                C#m7       B
Now the gun was loaded, I didn't know, I pulled the trigger

A         B          A         B
I heard a noise, the room went dark

A          B            A     B
I felt the bullet going in my heart
