Am x02210
Bm x24432
G 355433
--------------------------
In cases of G* it sounds really great if you shift to Am with the use of the riff below.
I'm not confident, but I think this makes up for some of the underlying banjo sounds.
Note that G is barred in order to use the riff properly.

Am Bm G* Am Bm G*
My heart is with you, its many dark corners
Am Bm G* Am Bm G*
Its rings of smoke, its lighted hallways
Am G* Am G*
And I wish you could know all the ghosts in my bones
Am Bm G*
They are weeping, they are screaming
Am Bm G*
They are inside my body
AmO, let’s tradGe skins
AmI’m ripplinGg in thiAms skin that I?G??m in
AmYou could wear my Gshoes, AmI could have your Ghair
AmAnd think that it was Gfair
Am G Am G G*
I’m rippling in the skin that I’m in
Am Bm G* Am Bm G*
“I’m gonna build you,” she said, “I’m gonna heal you,
Am Bm G* Am Bm G*
I can feel every part of you, that holds it together”
Am Bm G* Am Bm G*
And you always looked so happy when you were sleeping
AmSleep is the Bmonly Gway sometimes
Am Bm G*
To live in a perfect world
AmIt’s partGy timeAm, quiet anGd sublime
AmTonight there’s Ga party, Ama party oGf one
AmLike a wisp of Gsmoke, Amsolitary and Gthin
Am G Am G G*
The heat’s coming off the fires we built
Am Bm G*
Stars were meant to shoot
Am Bm G*
And waves were meant to crash
Am Bm G* Am Bm G*
I’m hypnotized by the flicker, and saddened by the ash
Am Bm G* Am Bm G*
And it’s complicated with desires and dreams
Am Bm G* Am Bm G*
With stiches and battle scars pulling apart at the seams
AmO, let’s tradGe skins
AmI’m ripplinGg in thiAms skin that I?G??m in
AmYou could wear my Gshoes, AmI could have your Ghair
AmAnd think that it was Gfair
AmI’m ripplinGg in thAme skin that I?G??m in
End on G
