xamazing song, amazing band. email me with questions, corrections, or life views.
in the chorus, the progression between G and Em has another chord in between, but I'm
taught, so I don't know what it's called.
G ? Em
e|-3--3--0--|
b|-0--0--0--|
g|-0--0--0--|
d|-0--0--2--|
a|-2--0--2--|
e|-3--2--0--|
[Verse]
G Am
earnesty and clarity, those wonderful mentalities
D C G
of decent positivity are all that we can strive
Am
but misery and poverty they follow me, my family
D C G
and though it seems that I can't win, I think I have to try
Am
everyone's afraid of me, they'll never see that we all bleed
D C G
the same damn blood each night
[Chorus]
Am C G ? Em
so you'll go your way and I'll go mine
C D G
I hope we meet later on down the line
[Verse]
Am
And sense and sensibility and peaceful productivity
D C G
a pretty girl with broken wings is all that I desire
Am
but there's so much hostility in all the things surrounding me
D C G
the awful glow of enmity is trying to stop my shine
Am
so I try to look inwardly at all the things inside of me
D C G
but sodomy and buggery keep bubbling to the top
[Chorus]
Am C G ? Em
so you'll go forward and I'll go back
C D G
I hope we catch up with each other on the track
[Instrumental] Am D C G
[Verse]
Am
and I've been thinking awkwardly about the things that are holy
D C G
like Jesus, Joseph, and Mary and Mary Magdalene
Am
and even theoretically I don't think I could ever see
D C G
the perfect human being Jesus lived without sin
[Outro]
Am C G ? Em
so you'll go upward and I'll go down
Am C G ? Em
you'll go upward and I'll go down
Am C G ? Em
you'll go upward and I'll go down
C D G
I'll see you in Hell when we die
