    [1] The song describes taking a drive down to the ocean at night to look at the stars and hold hands. However, the singer admits they don't really like their partner. [2] At the ocean, the singer has a cinematic vision like a holy dream but is called by angelic voices and dead souls at night, though the messages cannot save them from their fright. [3] The chorus invites the partner to feel their bones and skin, saying it's only natural, though the bridge reveals the singer has never had a lover, soul, or good time and never got bold before.

    Bones - The Killers

    [Intro] A Bm F#m E D E E7 (BASS OUT)

    [Verse1]

    We took a [C#5] back road, we’re gonna [D5] look at the stars

    We took a [B5] back road in my [C#5] car

    Down to the [F#5] ocean, it’s only [D5] water and sand

    And in the [Ab5] ocean, we’ll hold [C#5] hands

    (BASS IN) But I don’t [C#5] really like you

    [D5] Apologetically dressed in the [B5] best, but on a [C#5] heartbeat glide

    Without an [F#5] answer, the [D5] thunder speaks from the sky

    And on the [Ab5] cold, wet dirt I [C#5] cry [D]

    And on the [C#5] cold, [B5] wet [A] dirt [Ab5] I [F#m] cry [E]

    [Chorus1]

    [E] Don’t you wanna [A] come with me?

    Don’t you wanna [Bm] feel my [F#m] [E] bones on [D] your bones?

    It’s only [E] natural [E7]


    [Verse2]

    This cinematic [C#5] vision [D5] ensued

    [B5] Like the holiest [E] [F5] dream

    There’s someone [F#5] calling, an angel [D5] whispers my name

    But the [Ab5] message relayed is the [C#5] same [D]

    Wait till tomorrow you’ll [E] be fine

    But it’s gone to the [E7] dogs in my mind

    [C#5] I Always [D5] hear them [Bm5]when the [C#5] dead of [F#m]

    night comes [D] calling

    [Ab5]To save me [C#5] from this [D] fright

    But they can [C#5] [B5] never [A] wrong [Ab5] this [F#m] right [E]

    [E7]

    [Chorus2]

    [E7] Don’t you wanna [A] come with me?

    Don’t you wanna [Bm] feel my [F#m] [E] bones on [D] your bones?

    It’s only [E]natural

    Don’t you wanna [A] swim with me?

    Don’t you wanna [Bm] feel my [F#m] [E] skin on [D] your skin?

    It’s only [E] natural


    Bridge

    [F#m] (I never had a lover) I [C#] never had a lover

    [E] (I never had soul) [B] I never had soul

    [A] (never had a good time) And [C#m] I never had a good time

    [D] (never got bold) I [E] never got bold [E7]

    [Chorus3] (first part no guitar until riff)

    Don’t you wanna [A] come with me?

    Don’t you wanna [Bm] feel my [F#m] bones [E] on [D] your bones?

    It’s only [E] natural

    Don’t you wanna [A] swim with me?

    Don’t you wanna [Bm] feel my [F#m] skin [E] on [D] your skin?

    It’s only [E] natural

    Don’t you wanna [A] come with [D] me?

    Don’t you wanna [E] feel my [F#m] bones [E] on [D] your bones?

    It’s only [E] natural [E7]

    Come and take a [A] swim with [D]me

    Don't you wanna [E] feel my [F#m] skin [E] on [D] your skin?

    It's only [E] natural [E7] [A]
