Intro: D D A D

Verse:
           D          
Love was kind, for a time
           A                      D
Now just aches, and it makes me blind
              D                  
This mirrors holds my eyes too bright
              A                    D
That I can't see the others in my life


          D                   
We too young and heads too strong
              A                       D
To bear the weight of these lover's eyes
             D                    
Cuz I feel numb beneath your tongue
              A                     D
Beneath the curse of these lover's eyes.

Chorus:
            G               D            A                 D
But do not ask the price I pay, I must live with my quiet rage
            G           D             A                D
Tame the ghosts in my head that run wild and wish me dead
             G                   D
Should you shake my ash to the wind
         A             D
Lord forget all of my sins
           G           D                A                  D
Oh let me die where I lie beneath the curse of my lover's eyes

Interlude -3x-: D  G 

Verse:
                 D
Cuz there's no drink or drug I've tried 
             A                      D
To rid the curse of these lover's eyes
             D                          
And I feel numb beneath your tongue
                     A                    D
Your strength just makes me feel less strong

Chorus:
            G               D            A                 D
But do not ask the price I pay, I must live with my quiet rage
            G           D             A                D
Tame the ghosts in my head that run wild and wish me dead
             G                   D
Should you shake my ash to the wind
         A             D
Lord forget all of my sins
           G           D                A                  D
Oh let me die where I lie beneath the curse of my lover's eyes

Interlude -3x-: D  G 

Bridge -2x-:
             D           A   D
But I walk slow, I walk slow
         Bm           G       D
Take my hand, help me on my way.

Interlude -4x-: D  A  D  Bm  G  D
 
Bridge -2x-:
             D           A   D
But I walk slow, I walk slow
         Bm           G       D
Take my hand, help me on my way.
