A very rough attempt; every C has various simple hammer-ons and pull-offs to country it
up a bit. Enjoy, this is a class song from a class album.
CAPO 4
C
In a vacant old park
C
I watched from the dark
F
The old church was on fire
Fm
I buried my lighter
C E Am
So no one could tell I was runnin
F Fm C
God forgive me but he had it comin
C
She was barely fifteen
C
midwest town sleepy scene
F
I was two grades above her
Fm
Completely in love with her
C E Am
One look from those eyes I was done in
F Fm C
God forgive me but he had it comin
D G
It was deadly crooked fangs
C E Am
But outside a church-bell clangs
F C G Am
Well rise and fall, curtain call
D G
Build around your heart a wall
F C G Am
Brick and stone both thick and tall
D G
Build around your heart a wall
With my hand on her head
In a hospital bed
In the secrets she kept
That would lead to her death
Well the fucker had took what he wanted
And I promised he'd get what was comin
But she never made a sound
When he pushed her to the ground
Well rise and fall, curtain call
Build around your heart a wall
Of brick and stone both thick and tall
Build around your heart a wall
I tried to keep breathin
As the last car was leavin
Drank myself courageous
Crept behind the stage
Towards the target for which I was gunnin
God forgive me but he had it comin
It was deadly crooked fangs
But outside a church-bell clangs
Well rise and fall, curtain call
Build around your heart a wall
Brick and stone both thick and tall
Build around your heart a wall
Build around your heart a wall
