[Intro] Dm Dm Dm [Verse 1]
Dm
Two hearts that shouldn't

Gm            Eb     A
Talk to each other become close

A               D7
In a town much like a prison cell

Dm                 Gm
People speak our names

Gm                            Bbm
On the street in hushed tones

Bbm               Am
Oh the stories they'd tell

Dm                     Eb
If anyone would listen, anyone would listen

Dm
You come from a town where

Eb                          Am
People don't bother saying hello

Am         Dm
Unless somebody's born or dies

Dm
And I come from a place where they

Gm                           A
Drag your hopes through the mud

A                            D7
Because their own dreams are all dying
[Pre-Chorus]
Eb                          F
And when we walk down the street

F                           Eb
The wind sings our name in rebel songs

Eb                              F
The sounds of the night should make us anxious

Eb                      F        D
But it's much to late when the fear is gone
[Chorus]
Gm      Eb               F            D      Gm
I will meet you in the Next Life, I promise you

Gm    Eb           F       Eb   Dm  Gm
Where we can be together, I promise you

Gm      Eb                 F      Eb  D    Gm
I will wait till then in Heaven, I promise you

Gm    Eb        F
I promise, I promise
[Verse 2]
Dm
There's so many fighting

D                 A      D
To get past the Pearly Gates

D     A           D
But nobody ever wants to die or get saved

Dm
Their intentions aren't that good

D          Gm
And I can smell the asphalt

A                      D7
That's their personal road to hell being paved
[Pre-Chorus]
Eb                          F
And when we walk down the street

F                           Eb
The wind sings our name in rebel songs

Eb                     F        D       Gm
But it's much to late when the fear is gone
[Chorus]
Gm      Eb               F            D      Gm
I will meet you in the Next Life, I promise you

Gm    Eb           F       Eb   Dm  Gm
Where we can be together, I promise you

Gm      Eb                 F      Eb  D    Gm
I will wait till then in Heaven, I promise you

Gm    Eb        F        D
I promise, I promise... Uhhh

Where we can be together, I promise you

I will wait till then in Heaven, I promise you

I promise, I promise
