  • Put your money on me
    'Cause I can barely breathe
    Put your money on me

    Put your money on me
    If you think I'm losing you, you must be crazy
    All your money on me
    I'm never gonna let you go, even when it's easy
    Put your money on me
    Go tuck me into bed, and wake me when I'm dead
    I know that you gotta be free
    But I'm never gonna let it go

    If there was a race
    A race for your heart
    It started before you were born
    Above the chloroform sky
    Clouds made of ambien
    Sitting on carpets in the basement of heaven
    We were born innocent, but it lies today
    And baby you can give all the money away
    But if there's a race, a race for your heart
    It's over, before it starts
    Singing put your money on me

    If you think I'm losing you, you must be crazy
    All your money on me
    I'm never gonna let you go, even when it's easy
    Put your money on me
    Go tuck me into bed, and wake me when I'm dead
    I know that you gotta be free
    But I'm never gonna let it go

    All my presents are broken, before they're open
    And the promises, the second they're spoken
    I know I've been different
    My skin keeps shedding
    My mother was crying on the day of our wedding
    Trumpets of angels call for my head
    But I fight through the ether and I quit when I'm dead
    If you want to know who'll be there in the end
    When you bury me baby, I'll still be your friend
    Singing put your money on me

    If you think I'm losing you, you must be crazy
    All your money on me
    I'm never gonna let you go, even when it's easy
    Put your money on me
    Go tuck me into bed, and wake me when I'm dead
    I know that you gotta be free
    But I'm never gonna let it go

    Singing put your money on all your money on me
    I know it's not the last time
    Put your money on all your money on me
    (Put your money on me) I know it's not easy

    (To put your money on me)
    ('Cause I can barely breathe)
    (When you put your money on me)
    The Silicon Valleys melted back into silicon
    We'll find a way to survive
    Singing put your money on me

    If you think I'm losing you, you must be crazy
    All your money on me (All your money on me)
    I'm never gonna let you go, even when it's easy
    Put your money on me (Put your money on me)
    Go tuck me into bed, then wake me when I'm dead
    I know that you gotta be free (I know that you gotta be free)
    But I'm never gonna let it go

    Singing put your money on all your money on me
    (Put your money on me) I know it's not the last time
    Put your money on all your money on me (put your money on)
    I know it's not easy
    Put your money on all your money on me
    (Put your money on) I know it's not the last time
    Put your money on all your money on me
    I know it's not easy

    (To put your money on me)
    (All your money on me) Writer/s: Jeremy Gara, Regine Chassagne, Richard R Parry, Tim Kingsbury, William Butler, Win Butler
