Over, over,   I   come over, it's October

Unbound, unbound
Am7               Em7
You stormed my ribbon
              Dsus4
And you wound three times

My worn  out   throat around
Cadd9
 No   sound, no sound

a tale of woe, preordained grim
Em7              Dsus4           A7sus4
From the get-go, time  to loosen  your  grip, let go
Cadd9
  I   know, I know

  I   fear, I fear, I  fear I'm gonna die right here

 You  would be wise  now   to steer clear

 My   dear, my dear

 But   it won't be pretty, pretty

My arms  and legs real strong
  Dsus4    Em7     Cadd9          Dsus4  A7sus4
I want  my skin to fall,  stretch   lon----nng
  Dsus4    Em7              Cadd9
I want  my mind fresh, even when  my body's rotten
