  I knew a girl who said that beauty kills,

E/D
  Heathens stormed the citadel,

  Rained three days, when we awoke ...sun came out and the levee broke,

  Like some cruel and cosmic joke God?s  ...playing,
D MajorD                 E/D                E4/D
  I don?t pretend that I believe,   I know there ain?t no guaran - tees,
