 Her secret's like a church

 Buried in the dirt

 They're calling off the search, and here we come

 With the shame of the gun

 i.e. none

 The gloves are comin' off and the boots are going back on

 There's nothin' left to prove

 To all the young dudes

 It's holy water, you can taste it
 C                   E
 It's holy, it's holy


Bridge:

 E
 This is cryptic, hieroglyphic
 G 
 What I'm trying to get across is, this is precious
 A                               E
 Holy, holy, hold on to everyone
     E
 And all the blood and tears that dripped

 And all the beats my heart has skipped
     A               A  (stop)
 And all the times I tripped
