Chords

[Intro] C [Verse 1] No strangers in this town No one moves without making a sound
F                                       G
You live and die within the borders and lines

C
No one dies without paying their fines
[Verse 2] No lovers in this town The moon's full but it sure ain't round
F                               G
And just because you lie in his bed

      C
Don't mean you meant the things you said
[Chorus]
F
They marry young in these parts

                   C
They work the factories 

F
So I ran as fast as I could
Through the tall grass and the midnight woods
   Dm                     G                   C
So nobody would sing some bible song over me
[Verse 3] My cousin died in his sleep Forty pills, two kids to keep
F                                 G
And how will she explain to those kids

          C
About the sorry thing daddy did
[Chorus]
F
They marry young in these parts

                                   C
They raise their kids and set them free

F
So I ran as fast as I could
Through the tall grass and the midnight woods
   Dm                     G                   C
So nobody would sing some bible song over me
[Bridge]
F
They buried him out in the cold

                              C
He was only twenty-four years old 

F
How his mother came undone

                    G      C
When the choir sang hallelujah
[Chorus]
F
I ran as fast as I could

                                        C
Through the tall grass and the midnight woods 

F
I ran as fast as I could

                                        C
Through the tall grass and the midnight woods
[Outro]
     F                  C
Hallelujah, hallelujah, ahhh

     F                     C
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah

     F           G      C
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah
