Verse 1
In the summer (G major) of '0 (F major) 7
I was sure (C major) I'd go to heaven (G major)
But I was hedging my bets (F major) at (C major) VBS (G major)
The preacher in a t-shirt (F major)
told me I (C major) could be a leader (G major)
Taught me how to build a fire (F major)
and to (C major) spread the word (A minor) (C major)
Verse 2
In the evening (G major) everybody (F major)
went to worship (C major) and weep (G major)
Hands above our heads, (F major) (C major) reaching for God (G major)
Back in the cabin, (F major)
snorting nutmeg (C major) in your bunk (G major) bed
You were waiting for a revelation (F major) (C major) of your own
(A minor) (C major)
Verse 3
(G major) Sedentary secrets (F major) like peach (C major) pits in your (G major) gut
Locked away like jam (F major) jars
in the (C major) cellar of your heart (G major)
Waiting to be tasted (F major) and ultimately (C major) wasted (G major)
You were gonna win (F major) me over (C major) from the start
(A minor) (C major)
Chorus 1
Your (A minor) poetry was so bad
It took (C major) a lot to not laugh
You (G major) said that I (F major) showed you the light (C major)
But all it did (A minor) in the end (C major)
Was make the dark (G major) feel (F major) darker than before (C major)
Interlude 1
(G major) (C major) (A minor) (C major)
Verse 4
Your dad (G major) keeps his sleeves (F major)
down through the sum (C major) mer for a reason (G major)
Your mother wears her makeup (F major)
extra thick (C major) for a reason (G major)
When I tell you you were born (F major)
and you are here (C major) for a reason (G major)
You are not convinced
the reason (F major) is a (A minor) good one (C major)
Verse 5
While you're (G major) going to sleep (F major)
your mind keeps (C major) you awake (G major)
And it makes your heart beat (F major) (C major) fast and loud (G major)
There's nothing you can do (F major)
but the only (C major) thing you found (G major)
Playing Slayer at full volume (F major)
helps to (C major) block it out (A minor) (C major)
Chorus 2
(A minor) Poetry was so bad
It took (C major) a lot to not laugh
You (G major) said that I (F major) showed you the light (C major)
But all it did (A minor) in the end (C major)
Was make the dark (G major) feel (F major) darker than before (A minor)
(G major) Dark feel (F major) darker than before (A minor)
(G major) Dark feel (F major) darker than before (A minor)
