The Hallows
Intro
A, A#, D
DmAs I lay me GmdowGn to fFall asleepDm  
DmWith my demGmons dying Fand my pilDmot light weak
DmI curse the GmlasGt six Fmonths I been hiding behind a mustache, yDmeah
                           F                            Gm          Cmslide to  Dm  
And to those last ten years I been howling a paper moon: fuck you
DmThis goes out to all my underdone, A#under-tongue, lung long frontmen
(This is what the ghost of someone's dad says)
A#And all us earth growths, some planteGd
DmAnd some pulled
(Shut up and put your money where your mouth is)
DmShine a flaGmshliGght in Fa hat box Dmand spin
DmAn empty oyGmster shelFl and celebDmrate the hollows
DmThis goes out to dirty dancing, curA#sing, backmasking, 
A#backslidden pastor's kidsG  
(From behind bars it's not so hard to see he's risen)
DmAnd all us earth growths, some planted
And some pulled
(But nobody finds God and then goes to prison)
GmIn Berlin I saw two men Ffuck in a dark Dmcorner Gmof a basketball court
DmJust the slight jingle of pGmocket change pulsingDm  
GmIn the tourist part I lFost fifty Euros
DmTo the guy with the walnut shells Gmand the marbles
DmIt really pissed me off, so ohGm  
DmI thought I'd go back to get my Gmmoney but all my homies warned me
DmOh no, those gypsies probably goGmt knives
DmThis goes out to all my under breweA#d, double-duped, two times true fools
(Stuck faking a phone call or texting for company)
A#And all us earth grows, I'm plantedG  
DmThat's some pull
(Like a married uncle at a family function)
DmI got them shaky gums and a couGmple of loose tooths
CNow tell me, Fwhat should I do, my god
DmThe clock'Gms always stuck telling C11:11, or 3:3F2
