Let Em Break Your Bones

VERSE 1
  Am
I got these crazy dreams just don't know what they mean
                   G
Sometimes I dream so loud it wakes up dead folks underground
Am
Hatches baby birds and shakes em on down
                 D
Makes the weeping willow trees cry themselves brown

CHORUS
G
Let 'em break your bones
                       Am
Don't let 'em take your soul
                           C
Fill your heart up let it explode
D
Don't let it turn cold

VERSE 2
The only things that I recall as a witness to the slaughter
Was the muddy and bloody water and the farmer's youngest daughter
Covered in blood and feathers playing with a dead rabbit
She smiled like a centerfold reached out saying “come and get it”
VERSE 3
I found a dying angel after the mutiny in heaven
When I asked her what happened she said “look up there and you can see them”
I saw white wings torn off and caught in the razor wire
They did their best to bust out but they couldn't get any higher

VERSE 4
A clown tattooed vomit on his chin teardrops on his cheeks
He painted nails on his hands and he nailed hooves to his feet
His dying words were befriend a man who can settle for less
But beware the poor creature who will kill for the best

VERSE 5
He pissed tulips she bled a rose I cried stinging nettle
We were all at ground zero waiting for the dust to settle
She said “I'm a morning glory won't you open me slowly”
He said “I'm a dandelion come over here and blow me”

VERSE 6
She was standing in her darkened doorway wearing nothing but a Cuban guitar
Her leather strap wrapped over her shoulder she was sucking an electric cigar
She said “Why are you so quiet if you don't believe in silence?”
I cried “Why is my nose broken if you don't believe in violence?”
