[G] [Am] [D]
[E] [G]
[D] [Am]
[D] 3, [E] 4
[Em] Tell
[G] me [A] how are you coping?
[E] Now that it's time to go
[A] Do you see [G] the [E] chariots swinging [G] low?
[D] Up over the hill, [Am] pining out to the snow
[E] How much treachery [D] can you possibly [G] know?
[Am]
[E]
[G]
[A] Hey, a chaplain, he loves [Em] your death-row boys more than me
And though I have a choice, you pull him from the [G] trees
[D] You say an Irish boy should [A] never wear the hood
But [Em] I wear it for you, [D] and you are here for me
[Am] Hey,
[E]
[G] tell [A] me how are you coping?
Now [E] that it's time to [Em] leave
[Am] How can you burn more?
You've been [Em] burning for years
And I [Dm] assume when you fled
That [Am] you were quit as dead
[Em] Was their indifference cruel?
Then [Dm] you're nothing to [Am] eat
How [E]
[G] [Am]
[E] [G]

[A] of the venom [E] does a [G] tiger's snake eat?
There [A] ain't no horse in heaven, there's no boys [D] that get beat
And tell me how do we taste?
It's [Am] a sure yes price, [Em] a mountain to resort [D] to
Cause stones are the [Am] sea
[E]
[Em] [Am] Hey, a chaplain, he loves your death-row [Em] boys more than me
[Am] He abandons you to prayer, the [Em] church so he won't see
[Dm] You're standing alone, as [Am] your world's [Em] innocent fear
For us [Dm] has come from the [Am]
[Em] outlaw
Yeah, [Dm] we were meant to be, [Am] your exile is reached
[Em] Your home, your [D]
[Dm] home
Your [Am] home, your [Em] home
Yeah, [Dm]
