Em
it ain’t no jive
G
i was burning alive
Cadd9
whenever you walk in the room
Em
it happened so quickly

i was feeling so sickly
Cadd9
like a lover who lost his muse

Em
the sharks in the tank
G
the man in the bank
Cadd9
he wants my money to loan
Em
i can’t understand
G
what the hell is his plan
Cadd9

Em D G Cadd9

Em
girl on a street

with holes in her feet

Em
she drops to the floor
G
her head’s by the door
Cadd9
her bible is by her side
Em
heaven is calling
G
the new world is falling
Cadd9
and she ain’t got a single person left
