saints and sinners are but we
D Em G Em Em11 Em G Em Em11
twisted wrecks of symmetry
G A
like broken arrows split
Em G Em Em11 Em G Em Em11
against the mindless rift we feed
D A
saints and sinners are
Em
and each other’s company we seek

Em Em7 Em Em7

D Em G Em Em11 Em G Em Em11
though we took our separate paths
D Em G Em Em11 Em G Em Em11
back to the womb where we collapsed
G A
on buildings full of living bricks
Em G Em Em11 Em G Em Em11
cementing walls a dangerous fi
xd A
saints and sinners are

begrudgers who will never mi

xem Em Em G D Em G D Em

D Em G Em Em11 Em G Em Em11
contemplating right from wrong
D Em G Em Em11 Em G Em Em11
in retrospect we don’t get on
G A

who are the chosen ones?
G
consequences who you’ve been
B7
for in damnation satan grins

Em D
we’re saints and we’re sinners
Em D
nothing more than lost beginners
G
both now facing endless falls
A
its hell or heaven cry’s the pulpits’ scorn

play the following verse less louder than the others :

Em *
every saint now has a past
G Em Em11 Em G Em Em11
so may the sinners’ future last
D
every ghost still has a haunt
Em G Em Em11 Em G Em Em11
where he or she feels they belong
G A
all possessing tortured souls
Em G Em Em11 Em G Em Em11
confessing all that’s yet to be
G A
saints and sinners are

lunatics a vicious breed
