Album: Pieces of You [Instrumental 1] Am C Em Em [Verse 1]
Am            Em
Your mother's child

Am                 Em
But night lays you down

Am           Em
Hair aflame, wild look in your eyes

Am                 Em
Naked belly to the ground

Am       Em
A forest fire

Am              Em
Nibbles at your veins

Am             Em
Crawls up your arm

Am                  Em
Runs away with your mind

    C                       Em
And burns dry thoughts like leaves

F  G
Amen
[Verse 2]
Am         Em
Eyes stare up

Am              Em
But something's in the way

Am                Em
In the Bible only angels have wings

Am                Em
And the rest must wait to be saved

Am             Em
Screams at the sky

Am                Em
But the wind just breathes words in

Am                         Em
As a strange bird tries to fly

F  G
Amen
[Instrumental 2] Am Em Am Em Am Em Am Em [Verse 3]
Am           Em
Pieces of us die everyday

Am                       Em
As though our flesh were hell

Am                    Em
Such an injustice, as children we are told

Am               Em
That from God we fell

Am           Em
Where are my angels?

Am         Em
Where's my golden one?

Am              Em
And where is my hope

Am                      Em
Now that my heroes have gone?

Am             Em
Some are being beaten

Am             Em
Some are being born

Am                      Em
And some can't tell the difference anymore
[Chorus 1]
Am E
Amen

Am E
Amen

Am E
Amen

Am E
Amen

Am   C   E
Hallelujah

Am   C   E
Hallelujah
