Em G C Em
After the scripture, We started to pray
G C Em
Holdin' our hands up, Waitin' for change
G C Em
I hardly knew you, You knew me the same
G C Em
So we built a shelter, While we turned the weak away
Em, G, C, Em x2
Em G C Em
Your mother beside me, Rattlin' her brain
G C Em
Makin' an offering, Pacing the pain
G C Em
We took a picture, Placed it in frame
G C Em
We built a fire, And we turned the cold away
C G D Em
And I know it's not what you desire
C G D Em
This pain can't crumble, Won't soon retire
Em, G, C, Em x2
D/F# D C G
Everybody there was trying to hide some great desire
D/F# D C G
Put away the positives and let that good girl die
D/F# D C G
Everybody's prayers were turned into a gradual sigh
C G D
So I paced around the backyard for a while
Em G C Em
That was a bee sting, A speck in my eye
G C Em
A casual movement, A thief in the night
G C Em
Now I can't forget you, Sword in my side
G C Em
Candle that burned me, Deliver me light
C G D Em
And I know it's not what you desire
C G D Em
This pain can't crumble, Won't soon retire
