Em                Bm
Put your money on me
                      Em
'Cause I can barely breathe
                  Bm
Put your money on me

Chorus:
G
Put your money on me
If you think I'm losing you, you must be crazy
Bm
All your money on me
I'm never gonna let you go, even when it's easy
G
Put your money on me
Or tuck me into bed, and wake me when I'm dead
Bm
I know that you gotta be free
But I'm never gonna let it go

If there was a race, a race for your heart
It started before you were born
Above the chloroform sky
Clouds made of ambien
Sitting on carpets in the basement of Heaven
We were born innocent, but it lasts a day
And baby you can give all the money away
But if there's a race, a race for your heart
It's over before it starts
Singing

Chorus

All my presents are broken before they're open
And the promises, the second they're spoken
I know I've been different
My skin keeps shedding
My mother was crying on the day of our wedding
Trumpets of angels call for my head
I fight through the ether and I'll quit when
I'm dead
If you want to know who'll be there in the end
When you bury me, baby, I'll still be your friend
Singing

Chorus

         G
Singing put your money on
B                 Em
All your money on me
Put your money on
D
I know it's not the last time
G
Put your money on
B
All your money on
Em
Put your money on
D                 G
I know it's not easy

                      Bm
(To put your money on me)
                       G
('Cause I can barely breathe)
(When you put your money on me)
     Bm
When Silicon Valley's melted back into silicon
We'll find a way to survive
Singing

Chorus

Singing put your money on
All your money on me
Put your money on
I know it's not the last time
Put your money on
All your money on
Put your money on
I know it's not easy
To put your money on
All your money on me
Put your money on
I know it's not the last time
Put your money on
All your money on me
Put your money on
I know it's not easy

To put your money on me
All your money on me
