Harmless Sparks   by David Bazan

They might have burned but the priests were all taking turns

        Em                    Am      Am/G       F             G     G7
showing nuns what they had discerned about their bodies in the dark


C            G           F                 C
They carried on from the evening until the dawn


           Em                   Am          Am/G     F
like they should have been all along making harmless sparks

  G                 G7           C
instead of breaking little boys' hearts      



    F                                         C
And God knows, if you noticed the millions of small holes

                              G                                 Am
And ponder the weight of an apple Compared to the trouble we're in

             F                                       C
Then a grown man might, be tempted to question his   birthright

                           G                                F
In front of his kids and devout wife Causing the doubt to begin, 

   G                    C
To spread like original sin
