[Intro]

C#m E B F#

C#m E B F#

[Verse 1]

C#m E
Celluloid soldiers, come in from the rain
B F#
Murder my smile, but please leave me my pain
C#m E
All those good people, they don’t even try
B F#/A# A
Stealing the truth while they pay for your lie
C#m E
I’m about to lose the things I never saw before

You wanted me to know the ups and downs
B
Away we go to get another hit, the it
F#
The blood that she’s about to spit
C#m E
You go your way and I guess I’ll go mine
B F#/A# A G#
We’ll both arrive at the very same time

[Chorus]

Please give me your tired, give me your poor
E B C#m
Please lift up your lamp, walk through this door

[Solo]

C#m E B F#

C#m E B F#

[Verse 2]

C#m E
Kick down the doors that you don’t understand
B F#
Please don’t lose sight of this generous plan
C#m E
Blinded by prisms, we wind up in court
B F#/A# A
I’m folding chairs while you sold yourself short
C#m
She’s about to redefine the way
E
Reminded me to say the other way was right
B
She’s in a place to pray for me
F#
And now she’s got to flash the funky lighter
C#m E
You’ve got your way and it seems I’ve got mine
B F#/A# A G#
Both gonna die at the very same time

Marry me, mama

That’s someone to carry me home

I don’t want to be here alone

That’s someone to carry me home
