Introduction:
D G
You said you would fight anybody that hurt me
C D G
but you must know it was you too
C D G
And now you would fight anyone but desert me
C D G
Is that what you wanted to do?
C D G
Was it about the crimes they committed
C D G
or the violence that you could choose?
C D G
If you could call our relationship sacred
C D G
and put it up on a shelf
C D G
and then say that I am a heretic
C D G
For wanting something for myself
C D G
I think that the damn sacred could come down a few steps
C D G
if us sinners could move up an inch
D G
My heart is strong but my burden is heavy
C D G
Your mind is not wholly your own
C D G
The eyes that watch you bring pressure
C D G
my hands close around bone
G D Am
You saved me one time before...
C D G
but I am not the heretical misfit
C D G
you thought that you could protect
C D G
and you're not some holy crusader
C D G
with a righeous symbol on your chest
C D G
My greatest virtue is loyalty
C D G
to all who I've promised it to
C D G
and your worst sin is you destroyed and betrayed yourself
Am
and it came to nothing
C Am
and you sent us all running
C D
you did what you had to do
C D G
Now I want you to fight everybody that hurt me
C D G
(wait wait for me)
and heal the wounds that you've dealt
C D G
(I'm coming home)
join in my cause don't desert me
C D G
(stay stay with me)
you have more love than I've felt
C D G
(I'm coming home)
This is about the crimes they committed
C D G
(Pray pray for me)
now it is your chance to choose
C D G
(I'm coming home)
Please swallow the pride you've been gifted
C D G
(to you)
My dear I am counting on you
