Stray Paper Chords

(ver. 1)
The Gaslight Anthem
Intro
Am  G  F  C  x2
Am  G  F  G  x2

Am            G          F          C
   You better never tell nobody but God,
Am         G           F     C
   All the things I've seen.
Am         G         F       C
From high above this haunted city,
Am       G       F          C
   Under elected thrones of thieves.

Am     G              F          G
 Where mighty men lay down their hearts
Am       G                F       G
  In the service of their queens.
Am               G      F     G        
  And gave their bodies to be burned
Am       G               F  
  Like I did before your feet.
     G
Like she always tried for me,
Am     G     F
     G
Like now she does for me.
Am   G   F   G

Break: Am  G  F  G  (X2)

    Am             G          F              C
And underneath the tyranny of August and her sons,
         Am              G                 F             C
Who sent fire from their fingertips in the holy vow of a teenage kiss.
Am          G                F     G
  Now we're much too old for this,
Am            G                   F       G 
  And I don't feel those kinds of things.

Am G         F       G         
   Don't you cry for me,
Am G         F    G
   I used to feel everything.

Break: Am  G  F  G   (X2)

       Am
Oh but love... (run, run, run)
       F
Oh but love... (run, run, run)
       Am          G      F   
Oh but love, love, love becomes...
       Am          G    F
Oh but love, love, love becomes...

Am
Love, love, love becomes...
Love, love, love becomes...

    Am     G      F      C  
And all my love becomes...
    Am     G       F     C
And all my love, becomes...
       Am       G     F      G
Became blood on stray paper.
       Am       G     F      G
Became blood on stray paper.
       Am       G     F      G
Became blood on stray paper.
       Am       G     F      G
Became blood on stray paper.
       Am       G     F      G
Became blood on stray paper.
       Am       G     F      G
Became blood on stray paper.
