Note: Listen to song for strumming/picking patterns.

Verse: C G
I'm rotting inside,
F C
My flesh turns to dust
F Fm C
Whisper, are you dying in my ear?
[[play intro to this:]]
I'm so sick to death,
Tumors in my head,
Whisper, are you dying in my ear?
Chorus: A5 C5
Black rose of death,
A5 C5
In my fist I clutch,
A5 C5
Thorns shred my finger tips,
F5 G5
And drips toxic blood.
Verse: C G
Kiss me one last time,
F C
Mop of my sweat,
F Fm C
Whisper, are you dying in my ear?
[[play intro to this:]]
As my bones they rust,
Twenty pounds of trust,
Whisper, are you dying in my ear?
Chorus
Verse: C G
I'm rotting inside,
F C
My flesh turns to dust
F Fm C
Whisper, are you dying in my ear?
[[play outro for this]]
Kiss me one last time,
Mop of my sweat,
Whisper, are you dying in my ear?
Whisper, are you dying in my ear?
