Straight away I learned to pray
   FF       C majorC
He prays upon the sky
      FF        C majorC
You go to heaven when you die
        G+G        FF
But keep that lake of fire in mind

VERSE:
    G+G        E minorEm
Broke all the rules at Catholic school
    FF       E minorEm
Turned to a life of crime
     FF       C majorC
When I stole that motorbike
      G+G        FF
I left a trail of tears behind


BREAK:
      G+G
Had casual sex
    C majorC  FF
Smoked cigarettes
       G+G    C majorC

To get back to you again

But it was never as profound
  G+G         FF
As I had wanted it to be


VERSE:
   G+G          E minorEm
The birds, they sang the rites of spring
  FF       C majorC
In summer's La-Z-Boy
  FF       C majorC
I sat down to enjoy a world
    G+G        FF
That's comfortable in green


BREAK:
        G+G     C majorC    FF
A augmentedA red feather hawk and a Celtic cross
       G+G   C majorC
Are pierced into my ear

No matter where I went I meant

To make my way back here

VERSE:
    G+G         C majorC   FF
Well I don't need God or common law
      G+G      C majorC
To tell me right from wrong

'Cause when you press me to your chest

I know where I belong
