Body Damage Chords

(ver. 1)
Hail The Sun
[Verse 1]
C                 Am
A life was stolen today
C                          Em
A moment passed and it was gone
    F              Am  C               Em
The carnage in the car accompanied the girl
        Am              Em
Who was here, now she’s there
     Am   F  G
In a 3’ x 8’ cell
 
 
[Chorus]
C                Em              Am
I’m afraid of my soul leaving my body there
C              Em                   Am. f/g
On a gassoaked road with nothing to give
C        Em               Am
Take the time to count my blessings
C        Em                Am   F   G
‘Til the time it’s me they bury
 
 
[Post-Chorus]
F              Am            Em
Where is it we compromise to be?
F            Am        Em            G
Why is it we think “It never will be me”?
 
 
[Verse 2]
C           Em
Crash scene depicted with
    Am     C  F  Em  Am
the victim e-jec-ted out
Am
Crushing of bone
Em
Feeling of shock
C
Running the stop
C   Em  Am     C      Em   Am
Cue paramedic, triage requested
Am        F       G
Until the 3’ x 8’ cell
 
 
[Chorus]
C                Em              Am
I’m afraid of my soul leaving my body there
C                Em                   Am
On a bloodsoaked road with nothing to give
C        Em               Am
Take the time to count my blessings
Am       Em                Am    F  G
‘Til the time it’s me they bury
 
 
[Post-Chorus]
f              Am            Em
Where is it we compromise to be?
f                   Am
Looking away at the wrong time
 
 
[Verse 3]
C       Em         Am
So many others are complacent
C       Em                F      G
Caution may not stop a reckless path
F                 Am      C
The driver of the car was shrieking
       Em           Am              Em
As the girl who was here fought for air
  Am       F     G
I hope I’m never there
C      Em     Am
Strewn on the pavement
C      Em     Am
Strewn on the pavement
 
 
[Outro]
F       C       F        G
Cue paramedics, triage requested
C        Em               Am
Take the time to count my blessings
C        Em                Am   F/G
‘Til the time it’s me they bury
    C         Em              Am
I’m afraid of leaving my body there
C      Em     Am
Strewn on the pavement
C             Em              Am F/G
I’m afraid of leaving my body there
