WELCOME ME (Amy Ray) -------------------- [Actually in A; capo 2.] [Each chord is one measure. There are variations within the measures that I haven't noted here, mostly changing C and D to C(9) and D(9).]
(Am) AmG Welcome me to the city of angels DC Devil prophets still hold my hand AmG I walked your stillborn streets for hours DC(9) Ethnic echoes spitting out their trials
GD They tell me I'll, I'll be the first to praise the sun CG The first to praise the moon, the first to hold the lone coyote D The last to set it free
Welcome me to a haven given It's well received into my open arms I ran in my sleep through shaking tremors I felt the splitting earth echoing in my ears
And I feel that I, I'll be the first to praise the sun The first to praise the moon, the first to hold the lone coyote The last to set it free
[Guitar solo, same chords as one verse and one chorus]
Welcome me to your city of angels See, there's a devil monkey laying on our backs Now tell me, where's the heart, where's the bullet for breaking? Who's gonna give me a weapon, a pacifying weapon?
And I need it, I'll, I'll be the first to praise the sun The first to praise the moon, the first to hold the lone coyote The last to set it free, I said, I said welcome me I'll be the first to praise the sun The first to praise the moon, oh, the first to hold the lone coyote DC(9)G. The last to set it free
