away in your sleep

A gun for hire

  Introduced you to a vampire

  F                   Dm
A wave crashed on the beach

Gm
  We rolled around

in its foamy grasp

of a kelpy sea

Seems I couldn't

save you from me

can be a creep
[Bridge]
Bb            Gm
  Maybe I'm obsessive 

   F          Eb
to think like this

  Probably not impressing you

     F        Eb
with my cheap tricks

  Honey, it's depressing what

depression does to some
