Capo 1 Em

(Em) Where in hell can you go (Bmin7)
[C]Far from the things you (G)know
[C]Far from the sprawl of concrete (G)
That keeps crawling its[D] way about a 1,000 miles a [Em]day
Take one last look behind [Bmin7]
[C]Commit this to memory and (G)mind
[C]Don't miss this wasteland, this t[G]errible place
When you l[D]eav[Dsus2]ek[D]eep your heart off your sl[Em]eeve

Chorus:
Mot[G]herlandcra[D]dle[Dsus2] me [D]
Close my e[C]yes
Lullaby me to s[G]leep
Keep [C]me safe
Lie with me [G]

Stay beside me
Don't [D]go[Dsus2][D]
Don't you g[Em]o

[Em]Oh, my five and dime q[Bmin7]ueen
[C]Tell me what have you s[G]een
The l[C]ust and the avarice
The b[G]ottomless, the cavernous gre[D]ed [Dsus2]
Is that what you s[Em]ee?

Chorus:
Mot[G]herlandcra[D]dle[Dsus2] me
Close my e[C]yes
Lullaby me to s[G]leep
Keep [C]me safe
Lie with me [G]

Stay beside me
Don't [D]go[Dsus2][D]
Don't you g[Em]o

Bridge:
It's your h[C]appiness
I want m[G]ost of all
And for t[C]hat I'd do a[A7]nything at a[D]ll
Oh,[Dsus2] mercy m[D]e!
If you want the b[C]est of it
Or the m[G]ost of all
If there's a[C]nything [A7]I can do at a[D]ll [Dsus2] [D]


[Em]Now come on shot gun b[Bmin7]ride
[C]What makes me envy your l[G]ife
[C]Faceless, nameless
[G]Innocent, blameless
And f[D]ree [Dsus2] [D]
What's it like to [Em]be?

Chorus:
Mot[G]herlandcra[D]dle[Dsus2] me [D]
Close my e[C]yes
Lullaby me to s[G]leep
Keep [C]me safe
Lie with me [G]

Stay beside me
Don't [D]go[Dsus2][D]
Don't [D]go[Dsus2][D][Em]
