When We Fell – David Bazan
Intro: B E 2x
E B
With the threat of hell hanging over my head like a halo
F# B
I was made to believe in a couple of beautiful truths
E B G#m
That eventually had the effect of completely unravelling
F# B B7
The powerful curse put on me by you
Chorus
E B B7
When you set the table When you chose the scale
F# B B7
Did you write a riddle That you knew they would fail
E B D#m G#m
Did you make them tremble So they would tell the tale
F# E D#m B B7
Did you push us when we fell
Verse 2:
E B
If my mother cries when I tell her what I have discovered
F# B
Then I hope she remembers she taught me to follow my heart
E B G#m
And if you bully her like you’ve done me with fear of damnation
F# B B7
Then I hope she can see you for what you are
Chorus 1
Chorus 2:
E B B7
What am I afraid of Whom did I betray
F# B B7
In what medieval kingdom does justice work that way
E B D#m G#m
If you knew what would happen And you made us just the same
F# E D#m B B7
Then you my Lord can take the blame
