And born again by candle light

Blisters on my feet wooden rosary
G5                 C5           G5        F5
I felt them in my pocket as I ran
G5               C5        G5              A5
A bullet in the night, a feather always light

Tell them that I made the journey and tell them that my heart is true

And I will know that I am clean now and I will dance and the band will play
D5            B5      A5              G5                A5       D5
In the old I too can Tina cups will runneth over the ancient clay
