(Intro.)
|(Dm) / / / |(G) / / / |(C) / / / |(C) / / / |

(Verse 1)
(C)Layin' all alone (Em)
In the dark (F) of our (Dm) home
I can't (C) sleep in the bed (Em)
With your (F)ghost (G)
My heart's (C) heavy, the air is thick (Em)
The sheets are (F)cold, my head is (Dm) sick
Thinkin' (C) 'bout what you've (Em)done
And why you're (F)gone (G)

(Chorus)
I'm dyin' in this (F) house
(G) Like the little plants you forgot about (C) / (G/B) /
(Am) Like the wood that built the walls around (Dm) / / /
(G) Like the promises you made to me (C) / (G) /
(C) Like the trust we had and love (Em) we (F) grew
(G) Like the innocence I saw in you (C) / (G/B) /
(Dm) Burnin' me alive with no way (Dm)out / / / (G)
I'm dyin' in this (C)house / (G) / (C) / /

(Verse 2)
I'll (C) crawl into the flames (Em)
'Cause I know (F)hurting, I won't (Dm) escape
And pour some gas (C) on every dream (Em)
And memo-(F)ry / / / (G) / /
I don't (C) want to feel a thing (Em) / /
Burn me (F)black, set me (Dm) free
From the (C)cold, empty pain (C) / /
That lives in (F)me / / / (G) /

(Chorus)
I'm dyin' in this (F) house
(G) Like the little plants you forgot about (C) / (G/B) /
(Am) Like the wood that built the walls around (Dm) / / /
(G) Like the promises you made to me (C) / / /
(G) Like the trust we had and love we (F) grew
(G) Like the innocence I saw in you (C) / (G/B) /
(Am) Burnin' me alive with no way (Dm)out / / / (G) /
I'm dyin' in this house (C) / / /

(Outro.)
