[Verse]

G                                            C
Oh, sweet thing, Zion doesn't love you
                             D                                G
And Babylon don't love you, but you love everything
                                             C
Oh, you saint, America don't love you
                          D                            G
So I could never love you, in spite of everything


[Pre-chorus]

          Bm                                         Em
In the dark of this place, there's the glow of your face
                  Am                                    G          Gadd9
There's the dust on the screen, of this broken machine
          B                                        Am                                           G
And I can't help but feel, that you see the mistakes but you let it go

Ya hey, ya hey, ya hey


[Chorus]

C
Through the fire and through the flames
D                           G                               C
(Ya hey, ya hey, o deo hey, ya hey, wo deo hey, ya hey)

You won't even say your name
D                           G                               C
(Ya hey, ya hey, o deo hey, ya hey, wo deo hey, ya hey)
                                                                D
Through the fire and through the flames, you won't even say your name
G                      C
Only I am that I am

But who could ever live that way?
D                           G                               C
(Ya hey, ya hey, wo deo hey, ya hey, wo deo, deo)

(Repeat the same for the following choruses and verses)

[Bridge]

G
Outside the tents, on the festival grounds
C
As the air began to cool and the sun went down
D
My soul swooned as I faintly heard the sound
                          D7
Of you spinning Israelites into 19th Nervous Breakdown
