Chords with lyrics

[CAPO 3RD FRET] [ORIGINALLY IN G minorGm]


VERSE
E minorEm   C majorC   F# minorF#m   B7B7
Took me years to make my motives clear
E minorEm   C majorC   F# minorF#m   B7B7
And the days have not been kind
E minorEm   C majorC   F# minorF#m   B7B7
Once a steady gaze and charming smile
E minorEm   C majorC   F# minorF#m   B7B7
Has been buried in the lines I find

E minorEm   C majorC   F# minorF#m   B7B7
I walk in the noise, quiet employs
E minorEm   C majorC   F# minorF#m   B7B7
And darkness seems to know just where I am

CHORUS
C majorC    A minorAm   E MajorE    E MajorE
Mother wash the devil from my hands
C majorC    A minorAm   E MajorE    E MajorE
Pray the Lord I have the strength to stand
C majorC    A minorAm   E MajorE    E MajorE
Mother, tell me was it all a lie?
C majorC    A minorAm
Show me where the angels die


VERSE
E minorEm   C majorC   F# minorF#m   B7B7
There are words that never found my lips
E minorEm   C majorC   F# minorF#m   B7B7
There are words I'd soon forget
E minorEm   C majorC   F# minorF#m   B7B7
Thought the trick was never to look back
E minorEm   C majorC   F# minorF#m   B7B7
But it seems I've lost my grip, I slip

E minorEm   C majorC   F# minorF#m   B7B7
The faster we run now, the closer the gun now
E minorEm   C majorC   F# minorF#m   B7B7
And somehow all the bullets bear my name


CHORUS
C majorC    A minorAm   E MajorE    E MajorE
Mother wash the devil from my hands
C majorC    A minorAm   E MajorE    E MajorE
Pray the Lord I have the strength to stand
C majorC    A minorAm   E MajorE    E MajorE
Mother, tell me was it all a lie?
C majorC    A minorAm   E MajorE    E MajorE
Show me where the angels die

SOLO: C majorC E minorEm  (x4)
   A minorAm C majorC FF FF (x4)


VERSE
E minorEm   C majorC   F# minorF#m   B7B7
Took the road but should have chased the stars
E minorEm   C majorC   F# minorF#m   B7B7
Now I've lost my own way home
E minorEm   C majorC   F# minorF#m   B7B7
Had a photo of the time we shared
E minorEm   C majorC   F# minorF#m   B7B7
But I burned it long ago, I know

E minorEm   C majorC   F# minorF#m   B7B7
I struck the matches stuck in the ashes
E minorEm   C majorC   F# minorF#m   B7B7
Forgive me, won't you simply speak my name


CHORUS
C majorC    A minorAm   E MajorE    E MajorE
Mother wash the devil from my hands
C majorC    A minorAm   E MajorE    E MajorE
Pray the Lord I have the strength to stand
C majorC    A minorAm   E MajorE    E MajorE
Mother, tell me was it all a lie?
C majorC    A minorAm   E MajorE    E MajorE
Show me where the angels die
