[Intro]
Em* Cmaj13 Bm7 A7
[Verse 1]
Em Cmaj13 Evidence known so long Bm7 A7 Oh god, I'm lost in my wrongs Em Cmaj13 Everything froze like stone Bm7 A7 C Saw your heart couldn't take much mo-o-o-ore
[Chorus]
Am G Em** D My boy, I don't know why this life C G Bm7 C Is so cruel and unkind but it weighs on my heart Am G Em D All joys were taken from your eyes C G Bm7 C As the law would abide in murder and crime Am G Em D Hard lines as the fossil defines C G Bm7 C Its own shadow in lime and reveals how it dies Em* Cmaj13 Bm7 A7 (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
[Verse 2]
Em Cmaj13 If anything goes, then everything's flawed Bm7 A7 Oh my love, what the violence has caused Em Cmaj13 Malevolence flowed from beyond Bm7 A7 C And my heart cannot take much mo-o-o-ore
[Chorus]
Am G Em** D Oh joy I'm afraid of the light C G Bm7 C As the jewel of my mind begins to fall apart Am G Em D Do not destroy what has taken it's time C G Bm7 C As the Lord would abide in murder and crime Am Em D Oh my love, I don't know why this life C G Bm7 C Is so cruel and unkind but it weighs on my heart Am G Em D Fading lines as the fossil denies C G Bm7 C Its own shadow in the time to conceal how it died
[Verse 3]
Em* Cmaj13 Evidence known, march on Bm7 A7 Oh god, I'm lost in the antiphon Em Cmaj13 Where does everything go when everything's gone? Bm7 A7 C For my heart cannot break much mo-o-o-ore
