The Rocket Summer - Of Men and Angels
Intro: Bm D G A 2x
Bm D
Stop the press, everything’s a mess
G A
You can look alive, but you are not at rest.
Bm D
And i-ideas are flowing through your head
G A
A million miles an hour while lying in your bed
Bm D
A lucid life you never thought you’d lead
G
Are you working everyday?
A
Are you working just to bleed?
Bm D G A
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
Bm D
You’re staring at the names of the famed
G A
that are dipped in gold
Bm D
The feeling you deserve what you’ve heard
G A
But it doesn’t go that way
Bm
Oh, the tongues of men and angels
D G
I speak but lack love.
A
Oh, love, will I stab you in the back?
Bm
Working every day,
D G A Bm
I’m afraid I forgot to show what’s most important: love
G D A
Here I am, dear Lord, tasting hints of fame
Bm G D
And I don’t want it anymore
A
If it’s not you that I gain
Bm G D
Wanna fall at your feet
A
Don’t wanna fall from your peace
Bm G
I understand
Inst: Bm D G A
Bm D
Have you ever been the man that just ran
G A
When you knew that God was talking?
B, D
Have you ever heard his voice through the noise
G A
But just let it go away?
Bm
Oh, the tongues of men and angels
D G
I speak but lack love.
A
Oh, love, will I stab you in the back?
Bm D
How can I go with mine instead of yours
G
When yours is always right
A Bm
I’m sorry just pour into me love.
G D A
Here I am, dear Lord, tasting hints of fame
Bm G D
And I don’t want it anymore
A
If it’s not you that I gain
Bm G D
Wanna fall at your feet
A
Don’t wanna fall from your peace
Bm G
I understand
G D
A heart at rest is harder now
A
Don’t let it go away
G D
A hard earned pay, a hard earned pain
A
Right now they’re just the same
G D
What’s the use, why work so hard
A
When it’s not what you crave
C Bm
When what you need is: love.
Chorus 2x
