Am F C
My God is better than yours

And the walls of my house are so thick I hear nothing at all

I followed you out in the storm

But it carried you off

My gun is bigger than yours
Am F C G F
So let's arm the mas - ses and see what the bas - tards do then

F C G Am
Do you cry my name in the dark

like I do yours?
[PRE-CHORUS 1]
Dm Am
These storms are getting stronger now
C G
The trusses all bend and sway
Dm Am G
Lightning hits, the power goes out in the fray
[CHORUS 1]
F G Am
As the waves crash high
C G
And the shore - line disappears
F
And I'll scream to the sky
G n.c.
"Hey, people live here."

[VERSE 3]
Am F C
My dreams are not unlike yours
Am F C G
They long for the safe - ty and break like a glass chandelier
[REFRAIN 3]
F C G Am
But there's laughter and oh, there is love
F C G
Just past the edge of our fears
F C G Am
And there's chaos when push comes to shove
F G | | |
But it's music to my ears
[PRE-CHORUS 2]
Dm Am C G
And may you be in Heaven before the De - vil knows you're dead
Dm Am G
And may these winds be al - ways at your back
[CHORUS 2]
F G Am
And when we're all just ghosts
C G
And the madness overtakes us
F
I will look at the ashes
G n.c. G | |
And say, "People lived here."
