SOFT OFFERING (FOR THE OFT SUFFERING)
Dm Eb
the Dmlong kEbnife of the sDmun riGmsing

Fi‘m not gonna wannBba be alone Eb  
Fbeaten up when the Bbsunlight comEbes
Fbullied and cut by Bbthe clock on Ebthe wall
Bbtake the morning and the chloFrinous lGmight
Bbyou can have the afternoon. bFury the Gmevening too
Bbgive me gathering calm of the FnightGm  
Dmwhen the Ebday is done and Dmthe rest is Ebcoming on
Bbunder the pitch and the pull Fof the mGmoon
Bbsweet silver medicine swim in Fmy tempGmles and
Bbbring in the shadows to cover Four flaGmws
Dmwhen the Ebpain is gone anDmd the rest iEbs coming on

Byour hands and feet
for all of their grief
turned out to be

and promiF#se, we got prBomise

CATHEDRAL BELLS
G Am
G Am
and that's when the shadow came G  
and darkened your china face Am  
the dancers still shook and swayGed
but i couldn't look away Am  
they were all in their chemicals G  
a hundred cars up an icy hill Am  
and we were stood under them G  
grim and quietly grimacing Am  
and you spoke with that voice i love Bm  
and love awoke in my boiling blood Am  
where death sat a sec before Bm  
the road is lit and i'm gAmoing home
there'll be no caving Bmin
no suicide note, no pills anAmd gin
i'll hear your voBmice again
and it stirs me like a Cpealing bell
echoed by everythinBmg, everywhere
by every fraught fibrCe, and every cell
hear em telling you:
you're not the oGnly one
you're noCmt the only one
you're not tGhe only one
you're not Cmthe only one
feeling this sAmtuff
you're one of us G  Am  
G Am
G Am
and that's when the shadGow lifts
and the camera revAmeals her lips
and all the lavGa under your skin
you gotta alwAmays remember it
and try not to Bmtalk at all
and say all of that Amcommon stuff
no just let the lava Bmcome
and all the love you'Amve been holding off
yeah that's wBmhen we're rising up
feel the elevCator pull your guts
Deach floor is like the medicine drops
Emthe only fear is the fear itC'll stop
Gbut it won't because
Cmbut it won't because
Gbut it won't because
Cmno it never stops
Emno it never stops
Cmbut it won't because
Amcause it's in your blood
Gyou're one of us
G Am
Gyeah that's when we're rising up
Amout of the ashes and plastic cups
Garm in arm on a dirty rug
Amwhere they're all dancing to jungle love
Gi don't care if a shadow comes
Amand covers us like a shovel of rocks
Gthe party's still going on
Amand i heard cathedral bells

Emdown the darkest throat
of Fthe hardest Canimal
Cand just listen to Gthe wind
wailing likEme the wounded
over the Flincoln hCighway bridge
