Gm                   Eb
Oh, dig my shallow grave 
                     Cm
It's not me you'll save 
   D
'Cause I'm a lost cause 
I'm a lost cause 
A lost, lost cause 


Gm                                  Eb
Wait, all this time that I have spent away 
                                Cm
Makes me think that I might be okay, 
                                D
The kiss of death will have to wait 
Gm                                            Eb
My head, is holding on to all those things you said 
                                                         Cm
You taught me to be strong and get through it, the mist of darkness 
D
In my head 

Gm                   Eb
Oh, dig my shallow grave 
                   Cm
It's not me you'll save 

'Cause I'm a lost cause 
      D
I'm a lost cause 
A lost, lost cause 

Gm                                       Eb
Wait, no one said what's lost cannot be found 
                                       Cm
You are here to make it safe and sound, 
                            D
Oh we, can make it, out alive 
Gm                                              Eb
Fate, hath its way when all that's learned is sin 
                               Cm
Nothing really matters in the end, 
           D
As long, as you, are with me, friend 

Gm                      Eb
Oh, dig my shallow grave 
                     Cm
It's not me you'll save 

'Cause I'm a lost cause 
      D
I'm a lost cause 
A lost, lost cause 

Gm                     Eb
No one can understand me 
                      Cm
Like you can understand 

No one can fill your shadow 
D
'Cause you are all I am 

Gm                     Eb
Oh, dig my shallow grave 
                      Cm
It's not me you'll save 

'Cause I'm a lost cause 
     D
I'm a lost cause 
A lost, lost cause
