[Bm] _ _ [B] _ _ _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ [F#m] _ _ _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ _ [F#m] Sir, they've all gone off [Bm] to him I said [G] to that _ [D]
baptizer
_ We [F#m] watched as all his [Bm] _ friends [G] left him in [D] the dust
It's [F#m] a _ cold [Bm] _ world and [G] we all just [D] need the sun
He [F#m] said [Bm] with a smile
_ [G] _ _ I [D] choose altars over [F#m] _ stages
[Bm] Cause heaven is [G] my wages _
[D] I don't need the _ spotlight
[Bm] So make me a [G] silhouette
And I won't [D] fret
I don't care
You can [Bm] take [D] me _ [G] anywhere _ _
[D] Heaven is my wages
I [Bm] choose altars over [G] _ stages _
[D] _ _ _ _ [F#m] _ _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ [F#m] Even angels in the [Bm] sky
_ Can [G] fall down to the [D] dust
Clip [F#m] their wings with [Bm] their pride
[G] And rot what's in their [D] chest
_ [F#m] The funny thing about [Bm] _ pride
Is that [G] you have it all [D] your life
But [F#m] the moment you think [Bm] you don't
[G] It's gotten in [D] your eyes
_ [F#m] _ Oh, oh, [Bm] oh, oh
How's [G] it gotten in [D] my eyes?
[F#m] Oh, oh, _
[Bm] _ _ _ _ [G] _ oh, oh
I [D] choose altars over [F#m] _ stages
[Bm] Cause heaven is [G] my wages _
[D] I don't need [F#m] the spotlight
[Bm] So make me a [G] silhouette
And I [D] won't fret
I [F#m] don't care
You can [Bm] take me _ [G] _ anywhere
[D] _
Heaven is [F#m] my wages
[Bm] I choose _ altars [G] over _ stages
_ _ _ _ Oh, oh, oh, [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _

[Bm] Cause heaven is [G] my wages _
[D] I don't need [F#m] the spotlight
[Bm] So make me a [G] silhouette
_ And I [D] won't fret
I [F#m] don't care
You [Bm] can take [A] me _ [G] _ anywhere _
[D] Cause heaven is [F#m] my wages
[B] I choose [Bm] altars over _ stages _ _ _ _ _ _ _
