Verse:


G+G                   C minorCm
Heidi, there are things you couldn't possibly know

    C majorC         G+G
It's a race of angels, a line in the snow

G+G            C minorCm
A augmentedA flame in the dark, a prayer to Saint Jude

C majorC
He's the patron saint of nothingness

     G+G
There's nothing he can do

Bridge:

     E minor 7Em7  D MajorD   C majorC
'Cause it's out of his hands

     E minor 7Em7  D MajorD   C majorC
He's not a god, no he is merely a man

      Am7Am7       D MajorD   Am7Am7      D MajorD
And so I'm telling everybody, "I will not come undone"

   Am7Am7    D MajorD    Am7Am7       D7D7
But being so superior is just no fuckin' fun, no!

FF      C majorC        G+G  Gsus2Gsus2
If I had a gun, I think I'm able

FF      C majorC        G+G   Gsus2Gsus2
If I had a gun, I'd know what to do

FF      C majorC        G+G
If I had a gun, I would be perfectly unstable

   E minorEm                  A augmentedA
Well nothing really changes, then, that's true

  A minorAm                  D MajorD
Oh Heidi, I am many things, but I thank God I'm not like you

Verse:

    G+G     Gsus2Gsus2
'Cause kids of today

          C minorCm
They think they're so damn profound

       C majorC
You give them one slim book of Kerouac

      G+G
And they're ready to expound

    G+G
On the way of the world

  C minorCm
On what makes things art

       C majorC
They couldn't find their way around Kentucky

    G+G
On the map of a human heart

     E minor 7Em7 D MajorD  C majorC
So it's out of my hands

I'm not a god 'cause I will never be a man

      Am7Am7      D MajorD      Am7Am7        D MajorD
And so I'm telling everybody, "I've learnt to fill the hole"

I'm baking cakes on Sunday for the teatime of my soul

FF      C majorC        G+G
If I had a gun, I would be perfectly unstable

   E minorEm                  A augmentedA
Well nothing really changes, then, that's true

  A minorAm                  D MajorD
Oh Heidi, I am many things, but I thank God I'm not like you
