Chorus:
Fm            C#
I'm bleeding out
           G#               D#
So if the last thing that I do
    Fm        C#
Is bring you down
      G#            D#
I'll bleed out for you
     Fm
So I bare my skin
       C#
And I count my sins
       G#                  D#
And I close my eyes and I take it in
     Fm       C#
I'm bleeding out
     G#               D#
I'm bleeding out for you
    Fm
For you

          Fm      C#
When the day has come
           G#          D#
That I've lost my way around
         Fm      C#
And the seasons stop
     G#                D#
And hide beneath the ground
          Fm        C#
When the sky turns grey
    G#              D#
And everything is screaming
        Fm     C#
I will reach inside
         G#               D#
Just to find my heart is beating
        Fm             C#
Oh you tell me to hold on
        G#             D#
Oh you tell me to hold on
    Fm           C#
But innocence is gone
     G#                D#
And what was right is wrong

Chorus:
'Cause I'm bleeding out
So if the last thing that I do
Is bring you down
I'll bleed out for you
So I bare my skin
And I count my sins
And I close my eyes and I take it in
And I’m bleeding out
I’m bleeding out for you,
For you

When the hour is nigh
And hopelessness is sinking in
And the wolves all cry
To fill the night with hollering
When your eyes are red
And emptiness is all you know
With the darkness fed
I will be your scarecrow
You tell me to hold on
Oh, you tell me to hold on
But innocence is gone
And what was right is wrong

Chorus

Fm C#      G#              D#      Fm
     I’m bleeding out for you, for you
     I’m bleeding out for you, for you
     I’m bleeding out for you, for you
     I’m bleeding out for you

Chorus
