Into your room

………….Am

I've heard it's lined

With the things you don't show.

Lay me beside you

………F

Down on the Floor

………….Am

I've been your lover

……..F………C

From the womb to the tomb

I dress as your daughter

When the moon becomes round

You be my mother

When everything's gone

And she will always carry on

Something is lost

Coming out of that hole
