    Saw that in a movie

And the grave is the loneliest place

[Bridge]
D         Gm
   I'm so tired of waiting

My heart is cold
The sky is dark
    Bb               C
I'm curled up in the ashes
[Chorus]
D                   Gm
We die alone we die afraid
We live in terror

Naked and alone we die

If you want to make out with a biplane (No!)

Perchance a dance with a carcass in space (No!)

    D
And now you got to buy me some antlers

Gm
Antlers are what I need you to buy (Why?)

To take me down to the postman (You do it!)

Tell the postman to throw them to

There goes a wave rolling by

Final wave don't ask why-y-y
