Gene Clark - Tears Of Rage Chords

[Intro]
E  E  A  A
B7 B7 E  E
 
 
[Verse 1]
E              A
We carried you in our arms
A  B            E
On Independence Day
E                      A
And now you'd throw us all aside
B                 E
And put us on our way
 
[Verse 2]
E                     A
Oh what dear daughter 'neath the sun
A     B       A      E
Would treat a father so
A  B             A
To wait upon him hand and foot
B7                 E
And always answer, "No"?
 
 
[Chorus]
C#m            E
Tears of rage, tears of grief
Am                E
Why must I always be the thief?
C#m             E
Come to me now, you know
A
We're so alone
A           E
And life is brief
 
[Verse 3]
E                  E6
We pointed out the way to go
    F#m                    E
And scratched your name in sand
E                              F#m
Though you just thought it was nothing more
A      E
Than a place for you to stand
 
[Verse 4]
E                            B
Now, I want you to know that while we watched
B   A                  E      F#m
You discover there was no one true
    B            E
And now myself I even thought
E
It was a childish thing to do
 
 
[Chorus]
C#m            E
Tears of rage, tears of grief
Am                     E
Why must I always must be the thief?
C#m             E
Come to me now, you know
A
We're so alone
E
And life is brief
 
 
[Verse 5]
E               A
It was all very painless
A        E           F#m
When you went out to receive
F#m            C#m
All that false instruction
C#m      B     A     E
Which we never could believe
 
 
[Verse 6]
E
And now the heart is filled with gold
F#m
As if it was a purse
E                     C#m
But, oh, what kind of love is this
F#m                    B
Which goes from bad to worse?
 
 
[Chorus]
C#m            E
Tears of rage, tears of grief
Am                E
Why must I always be the thief?
C#m             E
Come to me now, you know
A
We're so alone
E
And life is brief
