Verse 1
[Am]If they adorn themselves with crystals [F]
to make them look sharp[Am]
Sleep with their hand on a pistol[F]
they-re afraid of the dark
[G]Well if it wakes you,
[Cmaj7]which it has to be known to
[F#]don-t be alarmed
Darkness can-t [F]do you harm
Fear will h[E]urt you
Am F
And outside, if wind is beating
a tree to a bed[Am]
Don-t fear that it might be meeting[F]
some untimely end
They do what they-re supposed[G]
to but they have been known[Cmaj7]
to stand strong and tall[F#]
weather it al[F]l
Take what you can[E]
[Am]Never give orders[F]
just to be obeyed[Am]
Never consider yourself or others[F]
without knowing that you-ll change
[G]It may not surprise you
[Cmaj7]but pride has been known to
rise up a storm[F#]
Countless lives lost[F]
at the hands of pride and I-ll fall[E]
Chorus :
[C]Who-ll weep [Em]for them-
Sometimes I do
Am
I do sometimes
[C]Who-ll weep [Em]for them-
Sometimes I do
Am
I do sometimes
[C]You can-t [Em]see it
it might be behind you
Am
Keep those eyes wide
[C]You can-t [Em]see it
it might be behind you
Am
Keep those eyes wide
[F] [E]
Verse 2 :
[Am]Don-t be impressed[F]
by strong personalities[Am]
Sincere words[F]
are rarely sickly sweet
[G]But if they fool you
[Cmaj7]which they have been known to
Don-t lose your sight[F#]
know something-s not right[F]
and look at the stars[E]
[Am]Be weary of being[F]
given a name[Am]
if for some reason[F]
you-re not considered the same
[G]Once they name you
[Cmaj7]they have been known to
lock you in[F#]
Statistical sin[F]
they-d rather ignore[E]
