[Verse 1]
Bm Em
An empty road and a rusted sky
Bm F#7 Bm
An abandoned mardi gras
Bm D
You led me to a mountaintop
Bm F#7 Bm
So I could see it all
Bm A D
Your salty kiss, you promised this
F#7
That I could have you all
Bm G6
And now with you here by my side
F#7 Bm
I will never fall
[Chorus]
G Em
So show me where it hurts
Bm D
I'll kiss it so it don't get any worse
G Em
A ticker tape parade, the traffic barricades
Bm D
Waiting on a long motorcade
G Em
I will be the car and all the bodyguards
Bm D
I will be the silence in your eyes
G Em
I will be your aid, I will serenade
F#7
I will be your motorcade

[Verse 2]
Bm Em
An effigy of Maximon
Bm F#7 Bm
I've come to make my wish
Bm D
A hole was drilled, where his mouth was filled
Bm F#7 Bm
with wine and cigarettes
Bm A D
A muggy night, a fire bright
F#7
and a reggae band plays "Israelites"
Bm G6
You on my arm, Your addictive charms
F#7 Bm
You're like heroin to me tonight
[Chorus]
G Em
So show me where it hurts
Bm D
I'll kiss it so it don't get any worse
G Em
A ticker tape parade, the traffic barricades
Bm D
Waiting on a long motorcade
G Em
I will be the car and all the bodyguards
Bm D
I will be the silence in your eyes
G Em
I will be your aid, I will serenade
F#7
I will be your motorcade

[Verse 3]
Bm Em
The driver veers, grinds the gears
Bm F#7 Bm
The sky is dripping red
Bm D
You scratch your last, minute vows
Bm F#7 Bm
in an old cigar box lid
Bm A D
Night falls, the engine stalls
F#7
in this Guatemala chicken bus
Bm G6
They took it all, my watch, our rings,
F#7 Bm
but they were simply things to us
[Chorus]
G Em
So show me where it hurts
Bm D
I'll kiss it so it don't get any worse
G Em
A ticker tape parade, the traffic barricades
Bm D
Waiting on a long motorcade
G Em
I will be the car and all the bodyguards
Bm D
I will be the stillness in your fear
G Em
I will be your aid, I will serenade
F#7
I will be your motorcade
