A
I'm not gonna tell you anything
F#m                          D
Anything you really want to hear
You disconnected everything
Except that ringing in your ear

Yes I've heard the desert sing
I've met the ghost that hooked you in
I've climbed the dust of nothingness
Before that sugar on the fringe

F#m
'Cause heaven is just a hole
C#m
Where everyone seems to fall
                    F#m
And want they disappear
Heaven is just a hole
C#m
Deeper that all my love
Could ever be

Chorus:
   A
So if you gonna run
Like a son of a gun
    F#m
Then I'm not through it
I'm not through it
 C#m
Lost your mind
On a different time
     G#
You won't undo it
Won't undo it - x2

I'm not going to tell you anything
Anything you really want to think
Is it truly you haven there?
I'm yet to see a pair of wings

'Cos heaven is just a hole
Where everyone seems to fall
And one day disappear
Heaven is just a hole
Deeper than all my love
Could ever be

Chorus - x4
