Am C G          Em 

[Verse 1]
Am                              C   G  
I feel this darkness creep like thunder
Am                         C     G
Its rolling straight into my spine
Am                        C    G
I feel temptation pull me under
Am                         C   G
My gold has lost all of its shine
Am               C     G
I try so hard to stay together
Am                       C  G
When everythings falling apart
Am                       C  G
I said that Id stay gold forever
Am                          C   G
It seems that Ive misplaced my heart

[Chorus]
C             G               Am
Save me from myself, hold me down
          F
Lock me away, don't let me out
C             G              Am
Tie up my wrists and have me shot
                F
Please save yourselves, so help me God

[Verse 2]
Am                           C   G
I once was pushed when I was younger
Am                                C  G
I gashed my knee, and I loved the pain

(Oh how I loved to feel the pain)
 Am                    C    G
And suddenly I had the hunger
  Am                         C   G
to rise up And make him feel the same

(I think thats when I went insane)
 Am                         C    G
I pushed him back but I pushed harder
  Am                    C         G
I watched him slam into the ground

(I watched him slam into the ground)
Am                        C    G
One day i'll die but Im no martyr
Am                           C    G
And I fear that hell is where I'm bound

[Chorus]
C             G               Am
Save me from myself, hold me down
          F
Lock me away, dont let me out
C             G              Am
Tie up my wrists and have me shot
                F
Please save yourselves, so help me God
C     G              Am      F
         so help me God

[Bridge]
    C                            G
This gunshot will drown out the noise in my head
          Am                           F
But these bloodstains won't cover the shame in my bed
      C                       G
And I can't think about it Cause I don't have the time
  Am                              F 
Cause either way I'll lose my mind

[Chorus]
C             G               Am
Save me from myself, hold me down
          F
Lock me away, dont let me out
C             G              Am
Tie up my wrists and have me shot
                F
Please save yourselves, so help me God
 C            G                Am
Save me from myself, hold me down
            F
Lock me away, don't let me out
 C          G                  Am
Tie up my wrists and have me shot
                 F
Please save yourselves, so help me God
