Oh, these Dmountains make me crazy
My F#mlegs can’t seem to stand
And I’ll be Bmleaving in the morning with or Gwithout you she said
If I’m Dbreaking what I’m building
I’ve ripped out F#mevery single stone
And you can Bmbreak my soul or bones girl but you Gcan’t destroy my home
No you Emcan't destroy my home
If these street Dlights they all flicker
Just like F#mcandles in the street
I will Bmgive my soul to strangers and let the Gbastards sell it cheap
I've seen Dgirls out on the street lord
Men drunk F#mon the boulevard
The Bmkings all know my face lord and the Gjokers pulled my card
Oh, the Emjokers pulled my card
They say Bmthat that doesn’t kill you makes you Dstronger
I Bmshould be pretty strong or so it F#mseems
Cause I Galmost died a Emthousand times
Oh, Ddeath it follows Bmme
I Aguess that’s what separates us gods from kings
We will Dplant our dead in boxes
And pray to F#mgod that something grows
Leave the Bmwidow on her knees
Boys dressed in Gblack with empty hopes
The Dchildren’s screams are crazy
Their eyes are F#mblacked out from the smoke
I can Bmspare my bread and water, but I Gcannot spare my coat
No I Emcannot spare my coat
Don’t damn Dmy imagination
Cause my F#mdreams are all I have
In the Bmday its damp and dirty
But when I Gsleep it’s not that bad
Dirty Dhands they cling to boxcars
Tender F#mtears stain frozen cheeks
We're all Bmsearching for salvation but we won’t Gfind it in these streets
We won’t Emfind it in these streets
They say Bmthat that doesn’t kill you makes you Dstronger
I Bmshould be pretty strong or so it F#mseems
Cause I Galmost died a Emthousand times
Oh, Ddeath it follows Bmme
I Aguess that’s what separates us gods from kings
EveryDbody lives for something
Well I guess F#mI must live to think
You can Dhave my thoughts at half the cost
'Cause I tEmhink they’re killing me
Well the Dtree lines weave through fields
Giant F#mserpents of the south
I’ve seen the sDun set on the ocean I’ve seen the Emdaylight drown itself
DPoets drink their whiskey
They point out F#mproblems in our lives
Well you will will Bmnever read his notebooks
He wont be Gfamous till he dies
Well withDout our hearts were nothing
And withF#mout our spines were weak
Well you can Bmpump my blood or hold me up but that Gstill won't make me free
No that Emstill won’t make me free
