Its Alright Ma I'm Only Bleeding

	  		Intro/End of Verses 



Am  C  D  C  Am Am 


Am 
Darkness at the break of noon 
C  
Shadows even the silver spoon 
D 
The handmade blade, the child's balloon 
F 
Eclipses both the sun and moon 
   E 
To understand you know too soon that there is no sense in trying. 


Am  C  D  C  Am  x4 


Am 
Pointed threats, they bluff with scorn 
C 
Suicide remarks are torn 
D 
From the fool's gold mouthpiece the hollow horn 
F 
Plays wasted words, proves to warn 
      E 
That he not busy being born is busy dying. 


Am  C  D  C  Am  x4 


Am 
Temptation's page flies out the door 
C 
You follow, find yourself at war 
D 
Watch waterfalls of pity roar 
F 
You feel to moan but unlike before 
    E 
You discover that you'd just be one more person crying 


Am  C  D  C  Am  x4 


         Am          E         A                  D 
So don't fear if you hear a foreign sound to your ear 
A    E  D     E                     
It's alright, Ma, I'm only sighing. 


Am  C  D  C  Am  x4 


Am 
As some warn victory, some downfall 
C 
Private reasons great or small 
D 
Can be seen in the eyes of those that call 
F 
To make all that should be killed to crawl 
         E 
While others say don't hate nothing at all except hatred 


Am  C  D  C  Am  x4 


Am 
Disillusioned words like bullets bark 
C 
As human gods aim for their mark 
D 
Make everything from toy guns that spark 
F 
To flesh-colored Christs that glow in the dark 
      E 
It's easy to see without looking too far that not much is really sacred 


Am  C  D  C  Am  x4 


Am 
While preachers preach of evil fates 
C 
Teachers teach that knowledge waits 
D 
Can lead to hundred-dollar plates 
F 
Goodness hides behind its gates 
      E 
But even the president of the United States sometimes must have to stand naked 


Am  C  D  C  Am  x4 


     Am          E         A                  D 
An' though the rules of the road have been lodged 
   Am          E         A                  D 
It's only people's games that you got to dodge 
     A    E   D   E  
And it's alright, Ma, I can make it 


Am  C  D  C  Am  x4 


Repeat for the rest of the song.
