The Widow As Cities Burn
The Widow As Cities Burn
(Capo on 3rd fret)
[Am]Dead man, were you ever alive?
Or was [F]I just a seed buried deep inside
[C]Some woman you wed
[G]Right before you crawled out of her bed and [Am]crept down the hall?
Did you think[F] of me?
Did you even for a [C]second hesitate in the doo[G]rway?
It's just something that I[Am]'d like to know
Though I'd still love you if you [F]told me
That you just walked [C]away
My [C]God, what a world you lov[Em]e
Where men bury their [F]sons
And without [Em]thought just walk away
Am Em F G (x2)
And my [Am]mother's he[Em]art [F]breaks[G] X2
[Am]Like the[Em] water in[F]side of [G]her
[Am]Dead man, is it being high that [F]makes you alive?
It makes you leave be[C]hind three boys and a wife in '8[G]9
As the track [Am]marks inched their way up your arm
My m[C]other taught my brothers and I [Em]not to call you daddy
Bu[C]t to call you father
But I [Am]believe there is something here to be learned [F]of grace
'Cause I can't help but l[Am]ove you
No I can't help but [F]love you
Even with a heart that [Am]breaks
Like the promises [F]that you made
Like the promises [Am]that you made
The promises [F]that you made
'Cause I still l[Am]ove you[F] [Am] [F]
My [C]God, what a world you l[Em]ove
