Pain of Salvation - Linoleum

^Am Uh Ah

^Am She keeps the world at ^Cbay With walls built to stand ^Dsus2come-what-may And with that coldness ^D#on display they held until to^Amday She would hold her ^Cown Running all ^Dsus2alone Ridding her road of ^D#every grain to stay in contr^Amol

^Am Suddenl^Cy she is down on all ^Dsus2four And the ^D#walls will support her no mo^Amre Cries her ^Ceyes out like never be^Dsus2fore Onto this lin^D#oleum The bottled up and s^Amtored
