SONG: Big Burned Hand ARTIST: Iron & Wine ALBUM: Kiss Each Other Clean Intro: G
                    G                      F    C      G
When the arrogant goddess of love came to steal my shoes

                     G                     F     C   G  
She had a white hot pistol and a homemade heart tattoo

          F                C                G
Singing one's to give and one's to take away

    F                     C                   G
But neither of them will keep you off your knees

      F                 C                G
The children bowed and bolted off the stage

           F                        C                     G 
While the lion and the lamb kept fighting for the shade tree

                G                    F   C    G
When the winsome god of war came to set me free

                   G                     F  C   G   
He had a couple of coke bottles full of gasoline

         F             C            G    
Singing all I love is all that I allow

        F                   C          G
And he blew me a kiss of a big burned hand

   F                   C              G 
I nearly choked with smoke and fell down

            F                      C                 G  
While the lion and the lamb kept shooting at a tin can
G G F C G G F C G G F C G G F C G
                G                              F       C    G       
When the gun shy goddess of love came back to patch things up

            G                                  F    C   G
She had a purple heart and mother's milk in a plastic cup

          F                C             G
Singing one's to lay you gently in the grave

      F                 C               G   
And one's the flag you fold before you go

           F                C                G
When the curtain rose the crowd was blown away

           F                       C                   G
While the lion and the lamb kept fucking in the back row
