[Verse 1]
G F C The human mind is a pile of shit G F C New life takes root in it G F C G F C Grows into the most complicated formations G F C With stunning colors and branches reaching up G F C Toward the heaven that they long to touch G F C G F C Trying to get just a brief audience with the sun
[Pre-Chorus]
Em B7 They wanna ask the sun to shine down Em B7 And warm the pile of shit they come from Em B7 These desperate sprouts all clustered around Am D G Like a gospel choir with their arms raised up
[Chorus]
G F C G F C Poor girl a long way from Heaven G F C G F C Poor girl a long way from Heaven

[Verse 2]
G F C April 4th, 1993 G F C God came down to talk with me G F C G F C Threw a stone at my window to get my attention G F C She motioned to me to climb down my wall G F C I shook my head, I was afraid to fall G F C G F C I was young and I didn’t wanna trouble my mother
[Pre-Chorus]
Em B7 And now I am a wretched old crone Em B7 Who swears that God once came to her home Em B7 Am I keep a lone candle burning upon my little windowsill D G F C So She knows I’m home
[Chorus]
G F C G F C Poor girl a long way from Heaven G F C G F C Poor girl a long way from Heaven
[Bridge]
G F C How they’ll talk about you G F C How they’ll spill your blood G F C G F C How they’ll love you when you’re gone for goo-o--od
