Am C C7 When we were children, we would play hide and seek

Am C C7 F A7 C E7

One time I looked all day, but you were nowhere near I thought you'd disappeared So I cried with fear And screamed until my throat was raw

F E7 ...

And you made a promise that you would never lose me again

C G C G F Am G

Remember our first, our first sunrise I took you to the hill, to watch the gulls fly I let it burn my skin, and enjoyed the sunshine With you, alone, before you had to go home

F E7 C G F

Am C C7

That night you wandered off And left me on my own to grieve With no answers and no reason You must have known I couldn't breathe Until I found out why, and

F A7 C Am

Even if I knew what you would do, I would still have gone after you

F Am C E7

Cos "till death do us part" is not the most romantic wedding vow, so I found a way around

C G C G F Am G

And it was our last, our last sunrise You took me to the hill, to say your goodbyes You suffered there in silence, as I scanned your eyes For an answer or two Before I followed you

F E7 C G F

Am C C7

I sometimes think about what would have been if we had lived

A normal life, a new romance, a house, and kids, and grandkids

Would I have been as bad if your blood weren't on my hands, do you blame me? Would it be better if I had been...

On the other hand, a normal life could just as easily be...

Am A7 C G F

Loveless and alone A sad, cold, creature, who knows? Do you blame me? I don't blame you, there's no room in my heart for regretting. No, there's no room at all

F E7

Because I'm heartless, (cos i'm heartless) except for loving you

C G C G F Am G

And it was my last, my last sunrise I took you to the hill, to say my goodbyes I let it burn my skin, and enjoyed the sunshine For a moment or two. But I'd happily give the sun up for you.

F E7 C G F

I'd give up the sun for you

When I was bitten, I could feel death Grasping at me, I was so afraid But then I changed, shed my skin and I was strong Still had my best friend, and my husband by my side Never known life without them, even when we died We were tethered, with bonds forged in heaven, Thought I’d never leave them, the people I called my home
