[Verse 1]
Em                       Am                  D
He wears his heart safety pinned to his backpack

    Em                      D
His backpack is all that he knows

Em                           Am             D
Shot down by strangers whose glances can cripple

    Em            Am        D
The heart and devour the soul
[Chorus]
Em          C
All alone he turns to stone

      G                          D   Am
While holding his breath half to death

Em          C
Terrified of what's inside

   G                Am             D          Em
To save his life he crawls like a worm from a bird

Am            D            Em
Crawls like a worm from a bird
[Verse 2]
Em                       Am                  D
Out of his mind the weight pushes him whispering

Em                        Am
Must have been out of his mind

Em                    Am               D      Em
Mid-day delusions are pushing this out of his head

                Am
Maybe out of his mind

 Am          D
Out of his mind
[Chorus]
Em          C
All alone he turns to stone

      G                          D   Am
While holding his breath half to death

Em          C
Terrified of what's inside

   G                Am             D          Em
To save his life he crawls like a worm from a bird

Am            D            Em
Crawls like a worm from a bird
[Bridge]
Em       D
All he knows

   Em                   D
If he can't relieve it grows

    Em      D
And so it grows

    Em
He crawls like a worm

Em
Crawls like a worm from a bird

Em
Crawls like a worm from a bird

Em
Crawls like a worm from a bird

Em
Crawls like a worm

Em
Crawls like a worm from a bird

Must have been out of his mind
[Chorus]
Em          C
All alone he turns to stone

      G                          D   Am
While holding his breath half to death

Em          C
Terrified of what's inside

Crawls like a worm, crawls like a worm

Am            D           Em
Crawls like a worm from a bird
