Shallow Grave Lyrics & Chords By Elektric Music

Her name was Julie and she told me
About her loss of reality
When I met her I thought I'd get her
And now I think about mortality
She was a doctor not quite a rocker
Coming home to her circle of friends
She said to David standing next to Alex
We need a flatmate to share the rent

I thought we could be lovers
But then her life changed in so many ways
She was running to the arms of another
Into a nightmare with no delay

They were just a circle of friends
Who got lost in the end
They made a big mistake
By digging out a shallow grave
Nobody seems to understand
This one and only circle of friends
No way it's gonna be safe
This mellow shallow grave

And then Hugo o.d. in the flat
He blew his mind out on his bed
Blood was running down from his head
The situation was rather sad

Underneath his decomposing body
He concealed a nice surprise
They discovered a suitcase full of money
Like a licence to paradise

They were just a circle of friends
Who got lost in the end
They made a big mistake
By digging out a shallow grave
Nobody seems to understand
This one and only circle of friends
No way it's gonna be safe
This mellow shallow grave

She said "Oh no !" when she found out
The money wasn't heaven sent
He said "Oh no !" I've got to go
And off he went
They were in double trouble when the men came
To get back what belonged to them
David had a heart though worlds apart
And got rid of those two men

Yesterday they had been lovers
They were greater than the sum
And now they are killing one another
Who's gonna take all that money and run ?

Na na na na na na…
Ouh ouh…

Nobody seems to understand
This one and only circle of friends
No way it's gonna be safe
This mellow shallow grave
This mellow shallow grave
