VERSE 1:
LAm MI SOL
After all these implements and texts designed by
RE DO RE
intellects we're vexed to find evidently there's
SOL
still so much that hides.
LAm MI SOL
And though the saints dub us divine in ancient
RE DO RE
fading lines their sentiment is just as hard to
SOL
pluck from the vine.
CHORUS
FA RE
I'll try hard not to pretend
FA RE MI
allow myself no mock defense as I
step into the night.
VERSE 2:
LAm MI SOL RE
Since I don't have the time nor mind to figure
DO RE
out the nursery rhymes that helped us out in
SOL
making sense of our lives
LAm MI SOL RE
The cruel, uneventful state of apathy releases me
DO RE SOL
I value them but I won't cry every time one's
wiped out.
CHORUS
FA RE
I'll try hard not to give in
FA RE MI
batten down to fare the wind
FA RE
rid my head of this pretense
FA RE MI
allow myself no mock defense as I
step into the night
LAm MI DO RE MI

DO SOL
Mercy's eyes are blue and
REm FA SOL
when she places them in
DO SOL
front of you
REm FA SOL
nothing holds a roman
DO SOL
candle to
REm FA SOL
the solemn warmth you feel
FA DO FA DO
Inside

Now run through VERSE chords 1x

CHORUS

I'll try hard not to give in
