Capstan - Bury Your Bones

      [Intro]
C G C G

[Verse]
            C
I hope my absence haunts you like a ghost
        G
Eating away at you from time to time
             C                                    G
I know I’m absent from your life and mind but you still haunt mine

[Verse]
          Am                              G
There’s a different kind of emptiness you left me with after all of this
    F                               C
And I can’t wrap my head around the fact that you’re not coming back
          Am                          G
There’s a chemical imbalance that you left inside my brain
F                                          C                         F
You’re the reason why the alcohol is still rotting in my veins

[Chorus]
          Am                       C
I’ll be ok this is something I can get through
       F                  Am            C
But I don’t know if I can say the same about you

[Verse]
         C                                                 G
I know a world of stability is all that you could ever see and when everything falls apart

Dear God I know it’ll fall apart
           C                                 G
I hope you buckle at your knees and think of me

[Verse]
                         Am
I’ll leave you with this emptiness as your parting gift
     G
These heavy words I know you can’t lift
C
(Between the two of you there’ll be a common rift)

And thats me. The problem you can’t fix
    Am                             G
The chemicals have balanced as I’m writing off your name
           C                                                           F
I hope the thought of us and broken trust stays frozen in his brain

[Chorus]
         Am                        C
I’ll be ok this is something I can get through
        F                 Am             C
But I don’t know if I can say the same about you

[Bridge]
F
Truth be told we are not the same
  G
A future sold that was built on blame
  Am
I pray you can’t bear the guilt and shame
     C
I’ll stay a thorn in your side that’s worn with pain
F
Day in day out it won’t get better
  G
Even your friends say forever fair-weather
     Am                                 C                                  F
Stay stuck. You’re a stormy sky with an idle mind you deserve each other

[Outro]
              G                    Am
And I’ve been picking you apart in my head
                      F                       G              Am
Trying to see between you and me if there was anything worth keeping
I’m empty handed once again

C                 F                                     C
    Constant consent. You lied to him about the time we spent.
                 F                             Am
Relapse. Repent. Your judgement lapse came and went.

              C
You said that life was built on compromise
  F
A statement laced with fraying ties on borrowed time you’ll never find
   Am                                     C
So in the end you took what was yours and stole what was mine.
