Bible Songs

G

[Verse 1]
G
 No strangers in this town, nobody moves without making a sound
Cadd9
 You live and die within the borders and the lines
G
 No one dies without paying their fines


[Verse 2]
G
 No lovers in this town, the moon's full but it sure ain't round
Cadd9
 And just because you lie in his bed
      G
 Don't mean he meant the things he said


[Chorus 1]
Cadd9                                               G
 They marry young in these parts, they work the factories
Cadd9
 I ran as fast as I could, through the tall grass and the midnight woods
   Em7                    D               G
 So no one would sing some bible song over me


[Verse 3]
G
 My cousin died in his sleep, forty pills, two kids to keep
Cadd9
 And how will she explain to those kids
          G
 About the sorry thing daddy did


[Chorus 2]
Cadd9                                                               G
 They marry young in these parts, they raise their kids and set them free
Cadd9
 I ran as fast as I could, through the tall grass and the midnight woods
  Em7                     D               G
 So no one would sing some bible song over me


[Bridge]
Cadd9                                                          G
 They buried him out in the cold, he was only twenty-four years old
Cadd9                                           D      G
 How his mother came undone, when the choir sang hallelujah

Cadd9                                                                G
 I ran as fast as I could, through the tall grass and the midnight woods
Cadd9                                                                G
 I ran as fast as I could, through the tall grass and the midnight woods
