Blaze Foley - Black Granite Chords

[Intro]
A
 
[Chorus]
      A                                   D
Black granite, so silent, cries out to us all
           A               E
Forever remember, never to crawl
    A                                       D
You gave what you could give and we gave it all
                A      E           A    D A E
And remain unacclaimed  names on a wall
 
[Verse]
    A                                     D
The slaughter and torture we feel in your eyes
                  A                         E
The years and the fears, the orange colored skies
   A                                        D
We gave all for nothing and weren't too surprised,
            A     E                A   D A E
All for old glory, without knowing why
 
[Chorus]
      A                                   D
Black granite, so silent, cries out to us all
           A               E
Forever remember, never to crawl
    A                                       D
You gave what you could give and we gave it all
                A      E           A    D A E
And remain unacclaimed  names on a wall
 
[Verse]
    A                                           D
The heart blood of youth runs cold through your veins
                    A                             E
Still searching for truth and finding nothing but pain
         A                                  D
You keep pounding the tracks like a runaway train
                       A     E               A    D A E
While the war monger's hunger  tastes blood again
 
[Chorus]
      A                                   D
Black granite, so silent, cries out to us all
           A               E
Forever remember, never to crawl
    A                                         D
You gave what you could give while we gave it all
                A      E           A    D A
And remain unacclaimed  names on a wall
                       E           A    D A E
And remain unacclaimed  names on a wall
