[Bm]Suddenly [A]every machi[G]ne stopped at on[D]ce
And the mon[F#m]itors beeped the last ti[Em]me
[Bm]Hundreds of th[A]ousands of ho[G]spital be[D]ds
And a[F#m]ll of them empty but [Em]mine[A]
Well, [Bm]I was lying [A]down with my [G]feet in the [D]air
Com[F#m]pletely unable to m[Em]ove
The [Bm]bed was mis[A]shapen, and [G]awkward and [D]tall
And [F#m]clearly intended for [Em]you[A]

Em D A Bm | x2
You checked yourself out when you put me to bed
And tore that old band off your wrist
But you came back to see me for a minute or less
And left me your ring in my fist
My hair started growing, my face became yours
My femur was breaking in half
The sensation was scissors and too much to scream
So instead, I just started to laugh
