Mystery Jets- Someone Purer
CAPO on the 6th fret.
INTRO:
Em
VERSE:
Em
I was gripped with a bit of fear
Em
worried the one thing that I loved
G
back when I was just a kid
Am
might now never be enough
C
that the body I was in
C
might belong to someone else
Em
Someone kinder, Someone surer, Someone innocent, young and beautiful
C
someone purer, that's the one I know
Em
C
Em Em
I was scratching at my skin hopin changes would begin
G
but what laid beneath was blood
Am C
well of course what the hell was I thinking of
C
won't you take me down to the creek wash away our sins of sleep
Em
I feel so tired as though I might
C
not wake at all on the other side.... that's no way to go
Em
C
Em
CHORUS:
G
Oh my dear one
bathe me in your glow
D
cut out my lonely heart
and bury it in the snow
F
nothing really means nothing
is the saddest thing I know
C
so deliver me from sin
and give me rock and roll
G
D
F
C
NOTE:
From here the rest of the song follows the same format. Hopefully you get the gist of it. ENJOY!
ADDITIONAL LYRICS:
And in the morning there'll be hope
and in the morning there'll be light
and if I sleep and dream up a system
a solution
to fend off perils of the night
come on in, I'll be born again
born again as someone else
Someone kinder
Someone surer
Someone beautiful
someone purer
and when I am you'll know
and when I am you'll know
Oh might one
the devil knows my name
will salvation come
and wash away my pain?
for I was once a kid
with a pure and innocent soul
so deliver me from sin
and give me rock and roll
Give me rock and roll
Give me rock and roll
a pure and innocent soul
and a pure and innocent soul
Give me rock and roll
Give me rock and roll
and a pure and innocent soul
and a pure and innocent soul
