[Intro]

Dm G Dm G

[Verse 1]
              Dm
There is darkness and death in your eyes
          Dm
What have you got buried inside?
        C                         Cm
The shallow grave in your soul
        Cm                                   B
The ghosts there have taken control

[Chorus 1]
        Am                         G                F#m     F
You really should have dug a little deeper there
Am                    G                F#m            F
Body parts are starting to appear and scare
        Em               Dm  G Dm G
The child inside away

[Verse 2]
Dm
Each tear that flows down your face
Dm
Trickles then picks up the pace
        C                       Cm
And turns to a river inside
    Cm                        B
A river that will not subside

[Chorus 2]
Am                   G                F#m          F
I can hear that dreadful overflowing sound
         Am                  G                F#m         F
And watching from afar I see a child is drowned
        Em                   Dm       G
The child inside your heart

[Bridge]
Am                                  Am
I can see you drifting away
Am                            Am
Heading for the light
Am                                  Am
I can see you drifting away
F         Fm   F7  Fm
Every night

Dm G Dm G

[Verse 3]
Dm
Why were you always inside
      Dm
On days when the weather was fine?
        C                                    Cm
And while we were running around
Cm                                   B
You were nowhere to be found

[Chorus 3]
        Am                               G                    F#m      F
You know you should have taken all your dolls to bed
       Am                        G                                F#m      F
But you were made to play games with your soul instead
        Em                     Dm
The child inside you died

[Outro]

Dm G Dm G
