Linkin Park - Blackbirds: chords

   Dm
I shiver and shake the warm air cold
                Am C
I'm alone on my own
   Dm
In every mistake I dig this hole
                     A# C
Through my skin and bones

      F      C/E     Dm
It's harder starting over
      A#             C
Than never to have changed

Chorus:
      A#         C
With Blackbirds following me
     Dm              F  Gm
I'm digging out my grave
       A#        C
They close in, swallowing me
     Dm                F   Gm
The pain, it comes in waves
     A#
I'm getting back what I gave

I sweat through the sheet as daylight fades
As I waste away
It traps me inside mistakes I've made
That's the price I pay

It’s harder starting over
Than never to have changed

Chorus

   Dm
I drop to the floor like I did before
Stop watching I'm coughing I can't be more
What I want and what I need are at constant war
        F                      Gm
Like a well full of poison  a rotten core
     Dm
The blood goes thin  the fever stings
And I shake from the hell that the habits bring
Let the sick ones down  the bells will ring
     F                           Gm
Put pennies on the eyes let the dead men sing

Chorus:
Blackbirds following me
I'm digging out my grave
They close in, swallowing me
The pain, it comes in waves

     A#           F  C/E Dm C
I'm getting back what I gave
I'm getting back what I gave
I'm getting back what I gave
