Suckers Prayer Chords

(ver. 1)
Decemberists
[Intro]
A   D   A


[Verse 1]
                        Bm
I was not ready for the road
D                      A                     D  A
I was so discontent to wear that heavy load
                        Bm
And so I got down on my knees
E
I made a sucker's prayer
E                               A
A grim bode of Baudelaire before


[Verse 2]
                        Bm
And when nobody did respond
D                         A                  D  A
I took my glasses off and went to find a pond
                        Bm
Stuffing rocks into the pockets of my pants
E
And when I waded in
E                              A
Those currents carried them away


[Chorus]
                                       D
I wanna love somebody but I don't know how
E                                         Bm  A  D  A
I've been so long lonely and it's getting me down
                                       D
I wanna throw my body in the river and drown
E                           A#m   E    A  D  A
I wanna love somebody but I don't know how


[Verse 3]
                            Bm
So if you're lost along the way
D                                A                 D  A
And if you're thinking that will always be the case
                       Bm
Won't you listen to my plea?
E
You'll make a sucker's prayer
E                             A
Just go and leave it that-a-way


[Chorus]
                                       D
I wanna love somebody but I don't know how
E                                         Bm  A  D  A
I've been so long lonely and it's getting me down
                                       D
I wanna throw my body in the river and drown
E                           A#m   E    A  D  A
I wanna love somebody but I don't know how

I wanna love somebody but I don't know how
