Can't believe I'm the first one to upload tab for this- the song's great and it's not that hard to play. Intro G5 C5 E5 A5 E5 G5 Verse G5 C5 We were born into nothing, hard up so to speak E5 A5 But love and affection this family afforded me G5 C5 Worries came early and often it seemed E5 A5 Fate was not pleasant still I was redeemed G5 C5 Then compassion soon faded to chaos D5 G5 D5 As they did their best all the while E5 C5 When circumstance outweighs intention D5 Sometimes the mountain's just too hard to climb Chorus G5 C5 They were cruel, they were ignorant D5 G5 D5 They were beauty, they were kind E5 C5 They were patience, they were virtue D5 They were crazy, they were mine Intro again I was young and I thought I knew everything It's so hard to change a fool's mind When you're stubborn by nature and quick to the draw And you're full of inherited pride But some lessons come harder than others And some senses are harder to find Your troubles won't end when you're saved by the bell You'll still answer to those you defied They were cruel, they were ignorant They were beauty, they were kind They were patience, they were virtue They were crazy, they were mine C5 The heavens might sing out your praises G5 But the heavens won't pay for your lies C5 The sinners might pray for your problems D5 But the sinners won't look in your eye Just play the chorus They were crazy, they were mine They were cruel, they were ignorant They were beauty, they were kind They were patience, they were virtue They were crazy, they were mine G and C until the end The heavens might sing out your praises But the heavens won't pray for your lies The sinners might pay for your problems But the sinner won't look in your eye
