[Refrain] F#m G Bm All my lies are always wishes Em A I know I would die if I could come back new [Bridge] Em I'm down on my hands and knees A Every time the doorbell rings D I shake like a toothache G When I hear myself sing F#m G Bm All my lies are only wishes Em A I know I would die if I could come back new [Outro] D I would like to salute G The ashes of American flags D And all the fallen leaves G Filling up shopping bags
