The picking pattern is weird but play it a million times, you'll get it.
Don't cry too much either watching the video, tears rust strings.

[Verse 1]
C Dm We built our home out on the slopes, Am Pompeii beneath she lay above, F How she haunted our home, C How she haunted our home. Dm You were a God in my eyes, Am Above the clouds above the skies, F You were a God in my eyes,
You were a God.
[Interlude]
C Dm Am F
[Verse 2]
C Dm You took me walking through the town Am Showed me the statues underground, F Said, "just don't they look at peace," C Sometimes I wish that was me. Dm I was the son you always had, Am Tugging at your coat while you were sad, F I was the son you always had, C I was the son you always had.
[Interlude]
(C) Dm Am F
[Chorus]
C Don't cry, Dm Hold your head up high, Am She would want you to, F She would want you to. C Please just don't cry, Dm Hold your head up high, Am She would want you to, F She would want you to.
[Interlude]
C Dm Am F
[Verse 3]
C Dm You said stay in the car and wait, Am There's just some things I have to say, F Don't you know I miss her too, C I miss her just as much as you. Dm So my father and my son, Am As you end what you've begun, F You'll lie patient by her side, C With roses red come lilies white.
[Interlude]
(C) Dm Am F
[Bridge]
C Dm I was too young to understand, Am The flowers slipping from your hand, F I was too young to understand, C I was too young to understand. Dm I was too young to understand, Am The flowers sleeping in her hand, F I was too young to understand, C I was too young to understand.
[Interlude]

C Dm Am F (full pick)
[Chorus]
C Don't cry, Dm Hold your head up high, Am She would want you to, F She would want you to. C Please just don't cry, Dm Hold your head up high, Am She would want you to, F She would want you to. C And just don't cry, Dm Hold your head up high, Am She would want you to, F She would want you to. C Please just don't cry, Dm Hold your head up high, Am She would want you to, F She would want you to.
[Outro]
