[Em]Sitting here, lonely tomb
How [C]many years have I [D]been so doomed?
No [Em]use to think it's been so long
[C]Centuries have c[D]ome and gone
Yet [Em]I still a-wait here for something more
To [C]give me back the [D]thrill
[Em]Pointless to think of a purpose here
If [C]only I could [D]kill
Chorus:
[C]Never [B]thought life would [Em]be so cold
[C]Once I was a [B]king now I'm [Em]all alone
So [C]here's to the l[B]onely hearts cause [Em]mine is beating still
[C]Will this c[B]urse ever [Em]end?

Verse 2:
A [Em]trail of blood across the ground
[C]Another mortal I've [D]feasted on
T[Em]hough not for fun, just to survive
[C]Blood no longer [D]tastes like wine
[Em]Many a time have I tried to starve
[C]But it never seems to [D]work
[Em]Nor can I will myself to stay outside
and [C]burn beneath the [D]light
