Dark Hand Over My Heart
G Bm Em F
Becky loved me and I let her
G Bm Em F
Wish I could have loved her better
G Em D# Bb C
On the day we pulled apart she primed a time-bomb in my heart
G Bm Em F
Now there's a shadow hiding
G Bm Em F
Now there's a horseman riding
G Em D# Bb
Lover of all broken things, standing waiting in the wings
F G# F G#
Sometimes I wonder why I love and let it die
F G# G F
Can't give, can't live just to hold back, hold back
Chorus:
D# Dm D# Dm
There's a dark hand, there's a dark hand
D# Dm G#
There's a dark hand over my heart (repeat)

You call me fraud and faker

You call me user, taker

You say I throw you scraps, prove my strength by holding back

But I shine my honour brightly

Swear my allegiance nightly

But through my hands it slips, the same old demons paint their lips

Sometimes I wonder why...
Chorus
