Wires - Athlete

A beautiful song evoking the horror of someone you love lying injured on a hospital bed
This song is strummed very lightly on the highest four strings, with on/off muting with
the barré finger. If you don't like barré chords ignore the sharps and play it Dm, C and
Gm with an F in the bridge.

You got wires going in 
        C#

Your dry blood on my fingertip 
        G#m
Running down corridors through automatic doors 
D#m                C#
Got to get to you, got see this through

First night of your life curled up on your own 
D#m                        C#
