[Em]
[C]
[D] [G]
Come over old stranger, let go of your dagger, you stagger and then you are saved.
To wander in danger, a babe in the manger, forgetting mistakes that you've made.
[C]
Eyes like mine blinking and endlessly drinking, letting the warlords inside.
[G]
Falling like mice into fires of ice, in death we find places to hide.
[D]
All the old heroes are [C] like children to me now.
[G]
[D]
As I come to burn your shame [C]
away, without knowing exactly [G]
how.
All the old heroes, young babies without mothers, left to die on apocalyptic streets.
And where are these words from who spoke them before, coming down like flashes of heat?
[C]
I'm never frightened for death, I still welcome death, I have seen you before.
I [G]
gave you my keys, my windows, my crates, but soon I will give you much more.
[D]
All the old [G] heroes are [C] like children to me now.
[G]
[D]
As I come to burn your shame [C]
away, without knowing [G] exactly how.
Love is a fix, a suicide risk, blood with an unending flow.
It's purified lands and soaking the sands of places that will never go.
[C]
Jesus come calling, we'll be here and falling, praying for your hand to show.
[G]
Catch us in mercy, drink us when thirsty, each of us falling like snow.
[D]
All the old [G] heroes are [C] like children to me [G]
now.
[D]
As I come to burn your shame [C]
away, without knowing [G] exactly how.
Each one a cathedral, the last junky needle stained glass from blood that is old.
And in that cathedral with the angels of night time hanged in a window so cold.
[C] They see through your victims, your painful musicians, playing the saddest songs.
[G] But nobody singing, just a ghost without dreaming, a voice that could right all the [D] wrongs.
All the old heroes [G] are like [C] children to me [G] now.
[D]
As I come to burn your [C] shame away, without knowing [G] exactly how.
Goodbye sweet diamond, the sky in the north wind is falling on leopards and snakes.
Hello young mercy, but blessed and thirsty for solutions to so many mistakes.
[C]
Without your lover, your tired wonder, the south brain threatens to pour.
[G] On skulls like crashing and sunlight basking, ignoring the strongest calls.
You cannot save them without their consent, your voice of mercy to them I have sent.
Useful grooming, you a good man, grew up to listen and give me your hand.
[C] Your voice of mercy so strong and so true, it comes out and has to end without residue.
Of darkness or lies or doubt or untruth, pure like the wind and rain and the [G]
view.
[D]
All the old heroes are [C] like children to me now.
[G]
[D]
As you come to burn their [C] shame away, without knowing [G] exactly how.
[D] All [G] the old heroes are like [C] [G] children to me [C] now.
[G]
[D]
As you come to burn their [C] shame away.
[G]
