House of Heroes
The Cop
Tabbed from the video.
capo on 3rd fret

C majorC
Some men do it 'cause it pays the bills,
C majorC
Others want to save the world.
A minorAm FF C majorC
Me myself, I never was a hero though.
C majorC
Joined the force like my daddy did.
C majorC
Figured I'd marry young,
A minorAm FF C majorC
But the things I've seen made me take a different road.
G+G FF C majorC
'Til you've been in the dark you might never feel it.
G+G FF A minorAm G+G FF
'Til you've been in the dark you might think you're guaranteed
A minorAm G+G FF C majorC
But your life can leave, with a spark.
C majorC G+G FF A minorAm FF C majorC
The rain falls on the blessed ones and the damned.
C majorC
Met my girl about a year ago,
C majorC
Knew that I'd found a home,
A minorAm FF C majorC
Laughed so much I felt like a kid again
C majorC
Since that day it's hard to do the job,
C majorC
It's hard to know what I've known,
A minorAm FF C majorC
So much pain, and so few innocent.
G+G FF C majorC
'Til you've been in the dark you might never question,
G+G FF A minorAm G+G FF
'Til you've been in the dark you might think you're quarantined,
A minorAm G+G FF
Yeah, but nothing's free
A minorAm G+G FF
And your love can leave,
C majorC
In the dark.
FF C majorC
The rain falls on the blessed ones,
FF C majorC
The rain falls on the damned,
FF C majorC
And you've changed my mind,
A minorAm G+G FF
I love you more,
A minorAm G+G FF
Than I love myself,
A minorAm G+G FF
And I'm scared to death,
A minorAm G+G C majorC
That you love me less
