VERSE: 
        Em       C       B7 
There's always a party on funeral row 
          Em            C         B7 
Where the cross flashes red to the street 
    Em       C         B7 
And gasoline dreams of girls in blue jeans 
     Em          C         B7     Fill
He's grazing the surface of sleep 
    Em          C               B7 
The vultures on main street are eyeing you up 
     Em         C             B7 
Calculating the weight of your bones 
    Em       C          D             Em 
And midnight graffiti appears on your door 
      Em            C          B7     
So we all can sleep safe in our homes
 
        G             C              G      C 
And the storms in the distance hold no rain 
      G           C             G   C 
And I feel my resistance giving way 

Em         C        B7   Fill
Shelter me from this sky 
Em            C       B7 
Dance with me one last time

Em        C        B7 
Do not disturb this blood red earth 
Em      C              B7 
There's giants sleeping beneath 
    Em       C                       B7 
And carnival queens on their deathbed scenes 
    Em             C         B7 
All go through the motions of grief 
Em           C                  B7 
Take another hit let the bottle slip through your fingers 
Em                       C         B7 
And break like a promise made, the day I remember 
Em              C        B7 
My heart I will keep, my voice I surrender 
    Em         C       B7 
And I will not speak to lie

We were so alive 
        G  C 
We were so alive 

Em         C        B7 
Shelter me from this sky 
Em            C       B7 
Dance with me one last time
