[Verse]
Do you Dthink that there's a way
DI could ever get too far
DThat you'd ask me where I'd been
DLike I ask you where you are?
DBut I know you're in the pews
DThe same as stools around the bar
DAnd I know I saw your hand
DWhen I went out and wrapped my car
[Chorus]
BmStrAeeG-tDlamp
Around the BmstrAeeG-tDlamp
[Verse]
So I Dwrote you love letters
DAnd sung them in my house
DAnd all around the South
DThe broken strings and amplifiers
DScream with holy noise
DIn hopes to draw you out
DBut if no one sings along
DIn praise, are you still proud
[Chorus]
When I Bmo--A--G--Dpen

[Verse]

Do you think that there's a way

I could ever get too far

That you'd ask me where I'd been

Like I ask you where you are?

But I know you're in the pews

The same as stools around the bar

And I know I saw your hand

When I went out and wrapped my car

[Chorus]

Bm A G D

Stree-tlamp

Bm A G D

Around the stree-tlamp

[Verse]

So I wrote you love letters

And sung them in my house

And all around the South

The broken strings and amplifiers

Scream with holy noise

In hopes to draw you out

But if no one sings along

In praise, are you still proud

[Chorus]

Bm A G D

When I o------pen

Bm A G D

My mou----th?

Bm A G D

Oh------

Bm A G D

Come vi-sit me

[Bridge]

C G D

Come visit me

C G D

In the back of an ambulance

C G D

A saline communion

[Chorus]

C G Bm A G D

That I held like a séa------nce

Bm A G D

On the bla---cktop

Bm A G D

The devil in my arms

Bm A G D

Says feed me to the wolves tonight

[Bridge]

C G D

Come visit me

C G D

In the back of an ambulance

C G D

A saline communion

[Chorus]

C G Bm A G D

That I held like a séa------nce

Bm A G D

Oh------

Bm A G D

Oh------
