Capo 6
Standard tuning
Intro: D A7 G Em A5
D
all around me
A7
in the air hangs a wreath
G
of blackest bile, and smoke
Em A5
that I can see
D
I open up my heart
A7
and let it all in
G
and it kills all my love
Em A5
and hope for everyone
[I'm not so sure about the second part because there are multiple tracks being

Em G
and it hasn't been easy on you,
Em G

Em G
I am born to be alone,
Em G
I am just some lonely ghost
[Don't forget to stomp your foot]
D
all around us
A7
hangs an air of darkest doom,
G
and it flows out my lungs
Em A5
and slowly fills the room
D
I open up my heart
A7
and stick my fingers in,
G
but you will never want
Em A5
what I have to give
Last verse is exactly the same as the third verse for the first half of the song.
