y[G]ou drag your tiger?s[D] paw across
C/G Gadd9
your chapped & cracking lips,
and op[Em]en up a crimson slur
you s[C/G]pread each time you ki[G+]ss.
the b[Am]roken boy you bargain[Em] with
to tu[C/G]rn back t[D]o the man[Gadd9]
that you fel[Am]l in love with once
but never saw[C/G] again.
is he i[G]n there?[C/G] do you think[D] he drowned to deat[Em]h?
well it[A7]'s his decision to s[C/G]how his face aga[Gadd9]in.[D]
you [G]grind your tired t[D]eeth
C/G Gadd9
& curse the day that you were born
to a [Em]sunken line of Irish wives a[C/G] million miles lon[G+]g,
de[Am]voted to the su[Em]ffering they're c[C/G]ertain the[D]y deser[Gadd9]ve.
a husband?s a c[Am]ross to bear,
worry lines & a si[C/G]lver string of hair
come too[G] early,[C/G] come to steal y[D]our sainted yout[Em]h
wel[A7]l it's your decision t[C/G]o stay or else to move[G].[D]
& I'm no[C/G]t a man of faith, no gos[G]pel oak for me,
but you [C/G]wear a crucifix to broad[G]cast your belief[D]s,
and the [Am]god I've [Am/B]read about can't go where he's not a[Em]sked[D] to [C]go.
so you've got a choice to[Am] make:
shut him out, save[C/G] yourself, or sit and wait.
but you're [G]waiti[C/G]ng on a man who[G] will n[D]ot mov[Em]e.
so you m[A7]ust move for him a[C/G]nd do what he can't do.[G]
(mute) G C/G C/G D Em
cause it?s worth it, that?s the one life you can change,
and I'm so[A7]rry sister, but it ha[C/G]s to end this wa[G]y.
yea, it?s s[A7]cary sister, but tomo[C/G]rrow?s just too la[G]te.
(Single strums)
so st[A7]and up sister,
there?s an[C] albatross to sh[G]ake.

here. Lyrics are included with the riffs, listen to the song for timing
