Please

Bm               A
So you never knew love
  Em                  G
Until you crossed the line of grace.
Bm                A
And you never felt wanted
Em                 G
Till you'd someone slap your face.
Bm                A
So you never felt alive
  Em               G
Until you'd almost wasted away.

[Pre-chorus 1]
    Bm              A
You had to win, you couldn't just 
pass
    Em                  G
The smartest ass at the top of the 
class
    Bm                    A
Your flying colours, your family 
tree
    Em                  G
And all your lessons in history.

[Chorus]
Bm      A       Em
Please, please, please
    G
Get up off your knees.
Bm      A       Em      G
Please, please, please, please, oh 
yeah

[Interlude]
Bm A Em G

[Verse 2]
Bm           A        Em
So you never knew how low you'd 
stoop
   G
To make that call
Bm            A             Em
And you never knew what was on the 
ground

          G
Till they made you crawl.
Bm           A             Em
So you never knew that the heaven
        G
You keep you stole.

[Pre-chorus 2]
Bm                        A
Your Catholic blues, your convent 
shoes,
     Em                           
Your stick-on tattoos now they're 
G
making the news
    Bm              A
Your holy war, your northern star
     Em                           
Your sermon on the mount from the 
G
boot of your car.

[Chorus]
Bm      A       Em
Please, please, please
    G
Get up off your knees
Bm      A       Em
Please, please, please
         G
Leave me out of this, please.

[Chorus 2]
   Bm      A
So love is hard
    Em      G
And love is tough
    Bm      A
But love is not
            Em       G
What you're thinking of.

[Bridge]
   Bm                 A
September, streets capsizing
         Em            G
Spilling over down the drains
         Bm               A
Shard of glass, splinters like rain
              Em             G
But you could only feel your own 
pain.
  Bm                  A
October, talk getting nowhere.
   Em        G        A
November, December; remember
        Em
We just started again.

[Chorus]
Bm      A       Em
Please, please, please
    G
Get up off your knees, yeah.
Bm      A       Em      G
Please, please, please, please, ah.

[Chorus 2]
   Bm      A
So love is big
   Em          G
Is bigger than us.
    Bm      A
But love is not
            Em       G
What you're thinking of.
                 Bm
It's what lovers deal
                 A
It's what lovers steal you know I've
 found it
Em        G
Hard to receive
       Bm       A
'Cause you, my love
        Em        Bm
I could never believe.
