Em          G       C               Em
After the scripture, We started to pray

              G      C             Em
Holdin' our hands up, Waitin' for change

          G       C                Em
I hardly knew you, You knew me the same

               G                  C              Em
So we built a shelter, While we turned the weak away
Em, G, C, Em x2
Em             G      C               Em
Your mother beside me, Rattlin' her brain

              G    C            Em
Makin' an offering, Pacing the pain

            G     C              Em
We took a picture, Placed it in frame

            G            C               Em
We built a fire, And we turned the cold away

       C         G        D      Em
And I know it's not what you desire

      C           G            D       Em
This pain can't crumble, Won't soon retire
Em, G, C, Em x2
D/F#      D                   C                 G
Everybody there was trying to hide some great desire

D/F#         D              C                  G
Put away the positives and let that good girl die

D/F#        D                     C             G
Everybody's prayers were turned into a gradual sigh

      C                  G           D
So I paced around the backyard for a while

Em           G       C               Em
That was a bee sting, A speck in my eye

           G      C                 Em
A casual movement, A thief in the night

               G       C             Em
Now I can't forget you, Sword in my side

             G        C             Em
Candle that burned me, Deliver me light

        C        G        D      Em
And I know it's not what you desire

       C          G            D       Em
This pain can't crumble, Won't soon retire
Em, G, C, Em x2
