May The Living Be Dead In Our Wake

Flogging Molly

 DG
Her breath pure as whiskey my heart fell in love
 DBm
Now the devil is courtin' a different tune
 DG
And I laugh as the tears wash the rain
 DAD
Tell me why no one`s listenin?
 GD
Is there nothing at all left to say
 AD
In a world so unforgiving     
 GD
You mean more to me each every day
 ABm
So may the living be dead in our wake
 GDAD
D, G, D, A, D

One cold winters night behind the clouds stars did hide
 DG
And the ghost of our souls thanking Christ we're alive     
 BmA
Our spirits they crackled with lovers first sight 
 DG
Till the mornin' came fresh with a new   
 DAD
Will you dance with me now heavens child sang the clown
 DG
We`ve nothing left to lose but your wings and my frown
 DBm
Where over the hills where the valleys will ring
 DG
To the sound of our love singin' true      
 DAD
Tell me why no one`s listenin?
 GD
Is there nothing at all left to say
 AD
In a world so unforgiving     
 GD
You mean more to me each every day
 ABm
So may the living be dead in our wake
 GDAD
D, G, Bm, A.
D, G, D, A, D

But the summer sun is melting now
 BmA
With the leaves i`ll soon be gone
 GD
Will you have the strength when the emptiness
 DA
Shadows fall                           
 G
Or will your aching heart be ripped apart
 BmA
By the beating from the storm
 GD
 Or will howling gales like yesterdays be gone
 DAG
 Yeah be gone... be gone
 A
D, G, Bm, A.
D, G, D, A, D

Was she sent down from the heavens above
 DG
Her breath pure as whiskey my heart fell in love
 DBm
Now the devil is courtin' a different tune
 DG
And I laugh as the tears wash the rain
 DAD
Tell me why no one`s listenin?
 GD
Is there nothing at all left to say
 AD
In a world so unforgiving     
 GD
You mean more to me each every day
 ABm
So may the living be dead in our wake
 GDAD
Tell me why no one`s listenin?
 GD
Is there nothing at all left to say
 AD
In a world so unforgiving     
 GD
You mean more to me each every day
 ABm
So may the living be dead in our wake
