And The Revelation

	  		
 




        C/G                 Em                                   D  Am 
I saw a white-haired child, staring out through hollow gray eyes 
      C/G                         Em                             D  Am 
I saw men that come to early ends, men who flicker, dim, and die  
        C/G                       Em                            D  Am 
I saw a kerosene skyline from the suburbs of the city on a hill 
            C/G                         Em                                      D  Am 
I heard the clatter of the coin and the yawning of the few that have their fill 


        C/G                   Em 
And the sun, it is a blister, rising like the dead  
          D                              Am 
I drag my shadow behind me, and I drag my body to the edge of my bed  
         C/G                         Em 
With my palms pressed to my eyes, I pray this one last time  
          D                                        Am 
If you're someone else I might love you still, but as it is we're done  


       C/G                     Em 
Oh and you, you will not dig a hole in me 
                   D 
You will not chop down my tree  
                      Am 
Or hold me under the water  
        C/G                    Em 
No and you, you will not dig a hole in me  
                  D 
You will not chop down my tree  
                     Am 
Or hold me under the water 
                  C/G 
Hold me under the water 
                  Em 
Hold me under the water 
                  D 
Hold me under the water 
                  Am 
Hold me under the water
