VERSE 1:
  Am        F                C
  My God is better than yours
          Am          F            C            G
  And the walls of my house are so thick I hear nothing at all

REFRAIN 1:
F   C               G            Am
  I followed you out in the storm
F        C              G
  But it carried you off
                         d#|-------------|
                         A#|-3/5-3---1---|
                         F#|-0---0---0---|
                         C#|-0---0---0---|
                         G#|-------------|
                         D#|-------------|
                             1 + 2 + 3 +
F       C                G              Am
  And I burned every pic - ture of yours
F                        G | | | |
  Was that not enough?


VERSE 2:
Am        F                C
My gun is bigger than yours
   Am                F         C                G          F
So let's arm the mas - ses and see what the bas - tards do then


REFRAIN 2:
(F)       C         G           Am
    Walking tall once set us apart
  F           C                   G
    Now we're down on all fours
                                    d#|-------------|
                                    A#|-3/5-3---1---|
                                    F#|-0---0---0---|
                                    C#|-0---0---0---|
                                    G#|-------------|
                                    D#|-------------|
                                        1 + 2 + 3 +
  F        C          G           Am
    Do you cry my name in the dark
  F           G     | | | |
    like I do yours?


PRE-CHORUS 1:
      Dm                 Am
These storms are getting stronger now
    C                    G
The trusses all bend and sway
Dm                  Am                        G
Lightning hits, the power goes out in the fray


CHORUS 1:
            F G         Am
As the waves  crash high
              C                G
And the shore - line disappears
         F
And I'll scream to the sky
      G  n.c.
"Hey, people live here."


INTERLUDE 1:
Am | F | C | |
Am | F | C | |


VERSE 3:
  Am               F       C
  My dreams are not unlike yours
       Am                F             C            G
  They long for the safe - ty and break like a glass chandelier


REFRAIN 3:
F             C               G             Am
  But there's laughter and oh, there is love
  F                 C            G
  Just past the edge of our fears
F             C          G                  Am
  And there's chaos when push comes to shove
           F               G | | |
  But it's music to my ears


PRE-CHORUS 2:
    Dm            Am                   C                  G
And may you be in Heaven before the De - vil knows you're dead
    Dm                   Am                  G
And may these winds be al - ways at your back


CHORUS 2:
                  F G          Am
And when we're all  just ghosts
        C                G
And the madness overtakes us
           F
I will look at the ashes
          G  n.c.             G | |
And say, "People lived here."

         Am       Csus2       Fsus2
From the penthouse     to the ho - ly martyr

From sea to     shining     sea
         Am     Csus2        Fsus2

Is this what you  call free?
        x02210
         Am        G             Fsus2
From the hate that drips from all     of your crosses
Am            G         Fsus2 | Fmaj7sus2
Are your hands so clean?
              Am       G         Fsus2
And there's a wildfire, and it's spreading far
     Am    G        F  | | G | | G (ring) |
From sea to shining sea

When we're all  just ghosts
        xx555x
        C                G
And the madness overtakes us
       F
I will scream to the sky,
          G
yeah I'll scream to the sky
             F
I will scream to the sky
                       x02010 hammer-on x02210
      G n.c.            Am
