Tuning: Standard
This is a really fun tune from the new album "The People's Key". So psyched to hear what the rest of the songs sound like. Very simple song, some tricky chords, but you don't have to be perfect! Feel free to email me any questions of comments.

Verse: I was dressed in white Touched by something pure death pobsessed like a teenager Sold my tortured youth, pissed in vinegar I’m still angry with no reason to be At the architect who imagined this For the everyman blessed sisyphus Slipping steadily into madness Now thats the only place to be free
Chorus: But here it come, that heavy love You’re never gonna move it alone Here it come, that heavy love Tatooed on a criminals arm Here it come that heavy love Someone gotta share in the load Oh here it come that heavy love You’re never gonna move it alone

AmAm#7C No I don’t want to play FCFG It’s a shell game, it’s a shell game.
Bridge/Verse: Am AmMaj7/F# Distorted sounds on oscilloscopes FC Distorted facts I could never cope FC My private life is an inside joke. GAm No one will explain it to me Am AmMaj7/F# WIll it be everything that we ever need FC Everyone on the count of three, FC Everyone on the count of three G All together now.
Chorus: But here it come, that heavy love We’re never gonna move it alone Here it come, that heavy love PLaying as the cylinder rolls Here it come that heavy love I only wanna share in the load Oh here it come that heavy love I’m never gonna move it alone
