Verse 1:
Am         Gbm                 Am          Gbm
Beware the bottled thoughts of angry young men
Am            Gbm        Am               Gbm
Secret compartments hide all of the skeletons
Am                   Gbm
Little girl wants to make her home with him
Am                   Gbm                Am
In the middle of the shore, she wonders
C                    Am
"Don't know what you asked for"
C                    Am         C
"Don't know what you asked for"

Verse 2:
Am            Cm            Am                  Gbm

Am               C                 Am                Gbm
From their coral graves, they rise up when darkness falls
Am                       Cm
With their bones they'll scratch the window
Am          Gbm
I hear them call
                     Am        C
"Don't know what you asked for"
                     Am        C
"Don't know what you asked for"
                     A         C
"Don't know what you asked for"
