Passing The Hat

Cold War Kids

 EmB
 EmBEm
Look up from the hymnal, look 'round at the faces of families closing their
 B
 eyes
 EmBEmB
We're taking Communion and passing the offering hat around at the same time

 AmEmBEm
reached for the hat and take all the cash
And slide it into my ragged coat sleeve
And leave in its place a note to explain
All of the reasons that stealing has led me to leave

 EmB
If there was a worthy cause for to give to
 EmB
May I be so bold as to say
 EmB
The givers not knowing where their money is going
 EmB
Is as sinful as throwing away  

 AmEmBEm
Stained glasses shine on my red wine
 AmEmBEm
And the sweat of my brow drips to my shaking knees
 AmEmBEm
small sacrifice to benefit one man's
 AmEmBEm
journey away from America's seas  

 AmEmBEm
 Sweet sweet sigh of relief
Sweet sweet O Baltic Sea
Sweet sweet sigh of relief
Sweet sweet O Baltic Sea
Sweet sweet sigh of relief
Sweet sweet O Baltic Sea

 EmB
 Nobody here
 EmB
 knows my name
 EmB
 Call it right or wrong
 EmBEm
 I bought my ticket just the same  


And that's it!

Beautiful song...
