Intro

C, D, Em, Am


C       G        Em      Am
I waited here all by myself

C            G                        Em     Am
The room was dark and it smelled like sulfur

C           G            Em              C
I heard the screams from way down in the darkness

C             G                   C
I felt pretty sure my life was over

C         G                 Em  Am
I kept my hat on just for luck

C              G                      Em      Am
And sang simple tunes the whole night through

C          G              Em             C
I wondered if I'd wake to find myself in flames

C    G               C
As I waited here for you

              G    C
Yeah when you came in

Em                Am      C G C
I could breathe again


C   D   Em  Am (x2)


C          G                    Em      Am
I saw some guys dressed up like sorcerers

C               G                Em     Am
Blue robes that flowed above the ground

C             G              Em                  C
They came and went and I was frightened for my life

C       G              C
I tried not to make a sound

C            G            Em      Am
Just when my solitude was closing in

C         G                    Em   Am
I heard a howl like screeching tires

C          G                 Em             C
And I told you the one thing I knew how to say

C                     G              C
To the bright ringing drone of 8 bit choirs

              G    C
Yeah when you came in

Em                 Am   C  G  C
I could breathe again
