May the Living Be Dead (In Our Wake) Flogging Molly

Great song by a great band

Verse
Said her name was marie
D (ring)
From the banks of the lee
G (ring)
With the prettiest eyes my own had ever seen
Bm (ring) A (ring)
Her hair like ripples
D (ring)
They danced with the tide
G (ring)
As our hearts washed away to the sea
D (ring) A (ring) D (ring)
Was she sent down from the heavens above
Her breath[D] pure as whiskey my h[G]eart fell in love
Now th[D]e devil is courtin' a diff[Bm]erent tune
And I la[D]ugh as the tears wash the ra[G]in
[D] [A] [D]
Tell me why no one`s listenin?
Is there[G] nothing at all l[D]eft to say
In a wor[A]ld so unforgiving[D]
You mea[G]n more to me each eve[D]ry day
So may the [A]living be dead in our wa[Bm]ke
[G] [D] [A] [D]
D, G, D, A, D
One cold winters night behind the clouds stars did hide
And the[D] ghost of our souls thanking Christ we're alive[G]
Our spir[Bm]its they crackled with lovers first sight[A]
Till t[D]he mornin' came fresh with a new[G]
Will you[D] dance with me n[A]ow heavens child s[D]ang the clown
We`ve no[D]thing le[G]ft to lose but your wings and my frown
Where ov[D]er the h[Bm]ills where the valleys will ring
To the s[D]ound of our love singin' true[G]
[D] [A] [D]
Tell me why no one`s listenin?
Is there[G] nothing at all l[D]eft to say
In a wor[A]ld so unforgiving[D]
You mea[G]n more to me each eve[D]ry day
So may the [A]living be dead in our wa[Bm]ke
[G] [D] [A] [D]
D, G, Bm, A.
D, G, D, A, D
But the summer sun is melting now
With the[Bm] leaves i`ll soo[A]n be gone
Will you[G] have the strength wh[D]en the emptiness
Shadows fall[D] [A]
Or will yo[G]ur aching heart be ripped apart
By the b[Bm]eating from the [A]storm
[G]Or will [D]howling gales like yesterdays be gone
[D]Yeah be [A]gone... [G]be gone
[A]
