Introdução:
C Am
Twice a week I pass by the church that held your funeral
G F C
And the pastors words come pouring down like rain
C Am
How he called you a sinner but said now you walk with Jesus
G F C
So the drugs that took your life arent gonna cause you any pain
G F C
I dont think he even knew your name
G F C G F
I refused to kneel or pray. I wont remember you that way
C G F
But I lit you a candle in every cathedral across Europe
G F C
I hope you know youre still my patron saint
C Am G F
I tried to forgive but I cant forget the cigar in his fist
G F C
I know that they were heartsick but I need someone to blame
G F C
And I know how they blame me. I know what youd say
G F C G F
Youd tell me it was your fault. I should put all my arrows away
C G
Im sure there aint a heaven
Am G F
But that dont mean I dont like to picture you there
G F C
I bet youre bumming cigarettes off saints
C G
Im sure youre still singing
Am G F
But Ill bet that youre still just a bit out of key
G F C
With that crooked smile pushing words across your teeth
Am G
You were heat lightning
C G F
You were a storm that never rolled in
Am G C F
You were the northern lights in a southern town, a caustic fleeting thing
Am G
Ill bury your memories in the garden
C G F
Ill watch them grow with the flowers in the spring
C
Ill keep you with me
C
These wolves in their suits and ties
F
Saying (kid you can trust me.)
C
Charming southern drawl, sunken eyes
F
Buying good will in hotel lobbies
C F
They got fistfuls of pills to make sure you dont hurt no more
You dont gotta feel anything
C
Got their fangs in our veins
F
Got their voice in our heads
F
Got our arms in their grips
No, we cant shake free
C F
This god damn machine hungry and heartless
C
My whole generation got lost in the margin
F
We put our faith in you. You turned a profit
C F
Now were drowning here under your waves
C F
Drowning held under your waves
Drowning here. Drowning here
C F
You cant have my friends. You cant have my brothers
C
You cant have my friends. You cant have my brothers
F
You cant have my friends. You cant have my brothers
C
You cant have me. No, you cant have me
