Epilogue - The Antlers By: Joe Weitzel ----- Intro ----- Em Bm Am C Bm Am C D ------- Verse 1 ------- [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/t/the-antlers/225367.html ] G Bm C G F# In a nightmare, I am falling from the ceiling into bed beside you. Em Am C D You're asleep, I'm screaming, shoving you to try to wake you up. G Bm C G And like before, you've got no interest in the life you live when you're F# awake. Em Am C D Your dreams still follow storylines, like fictions you would make. G Bm C G F# So I lie down against your back, until we're both back in the hospital. Em Am C D But now it's not a cancer ward, we're sleeping in the morgue. G Bm C G F# Men and women in blue and white, they are singing all around you, Em Am C D With heavy shovels holding earth, you're being buried to you neck. G Bm C G F# In that hospital bed, being buried quite alive now. Em Am C D I'm trying to dig you out but all you want is to be buried there together. ------ Chorus ------ Am You're screaming, G and cursing, Am and angry, G and hurting me, Am and then smiling, G and crying, D apologizing. ------- Verse 2 ------- G Bm C G F# I've woken up, I'm in our bed, but there's no breathing body there beside me. Em Am C D Someone must have taken you while I was stuck asleep. G Bm C G F# But I know better as my eyes adjust, you've been gone for quite awhile now, Em Am C D And I don't work there in the hospital, they had to let me go. G Bm C G F# When I try to move my arms sometimes, they weigh too much to lift. Em Am C D I think you buried me awake, my one and only parting gift. G Bm C G F# But you return to me at night, just when I think I may have fallen asleep. Em Am C D Your face is up against mine, and I'm too terrified to speak. ------------- ( Chorus 3x ) -------------  |
