Intro: Am F C C Am F C C

Verse 1

Am        F           C       C
My god is better than yours.

        Am          F            C            G          F
And the walls of my house are so thick I hear nothing at all.

  C            G          Am     F         C           G     G     F
I followed you out in the storm     but it carried you off.

      C            G          Am     F        F          G      G G G
And I burned every picture of yours,      was that not e-nough?

Verse 2
Am        F           C       C
My gun is bigger than yours,

   Am            F          C            G           F
So let's arm the masses and see what the bastards do then.

        C         G        Am    F            C           G       G     F
Walking tall once set us a-part,    now we're down on all fours.

       C      G           Am     F       F    G         G G G
Do you cry my name in the dark,     like I do yours?

Chorus 1
      Dm         Dm      Am       Am   C       C            G      G
These storms are getting stronger now, trusses all bend and sway.

Dm        Dm        Am         Am         G     G G G
Lightning hits, the power goes out in the fray.

       F     G     Am   Am            C      C      G       G
As the waves crash high       and the shoreline disappears,

       F   F         F   F         G                    Am F C C Am F C C
I will scream to the sky:    "Hey, people live here!"

Verse 3
Am            F          C       C
My dreams are not unlike yours,

     Am           F          C            G            F
They long for the safety and break like a glass chande-lier.

            C            G           Am    F             C           G       G    F
But there's laughter and oh there is love, just past the edge of our fears.

            C          G             Am              F     F       G    G G G
And there's chaos when push comes to shove, but it's music   to my ears.

Chorus 2
Dm      Dm    Am     Am         C   C               G      G
May you be in heaven before the de-vil knows you're dead.

Dm        Dm       Am    Am         G     G G G
May these winds be always   at your back.

                  F   G    Am   Am         C    C      G         G
'Cause when we're all just ghosts  and the madness overtakes us,

        F   F       F   F           G-             G       Am C F F Am C F F
We will look at the ashes and say: "People lived here."
Bridge
         Am   C           F    F
From the penthouse to the holy martyr,

Am     C         F     F
Sea to   shining sea,

         Am   C          F     F
From the coffins full of kindergarteners,

   Am        C        F      F
Is this what you call free?

         Am        C          F        F
From the hate that drips from all your crosses,

Am       C        F        F
Are your hands so clean?

          Am       C          F         F
There's a wildfire   and it's spreading far,

     Am     C         F    F G G G G
From sea to   shining sea.
Final Chorus
           F   G    Am   Am         C    C      G         G
When we're all just ghosts  and the madness overtakes us,

       F   F         F   F            G   G         G   G
I will scream to the sky,   yeah I'll scream to the sky,

          F   F         F   F        G-              Am
Yeah I'll scream to the sky:   "Hey, people live here."
