Holy Ground

D E G D D Keep it in your bedroom museum E And trash the place to keep it clean G D Bury it with my dog in the yard D Pasted up on four little walls E You’re at again the hallowed halls G D Echo with whatever we discard G They took our tree to the burning yards D A We took our chances with counting cards G I dial and dial but you don’t hear a thing A D These aren’t just words to toss around E7 We’ll build a house to burn it down G D Carve it in your bedpost like it’s scripture D G But it’s only gonna k**l you if you let it G D You’re only gonna win if you’re bettin’ G D D Facedown on your bedroom floor E Em How sweet the sound how clean and pure G D Save it for a teenage mausoleum D Hungrier than evеr before A E But I don’t dare to ask for morе G D G The years go by diluted with the screams D Scattered on the holy ground E We’ll build a house to burn it down G D Carve it in your bedpost like it’s scripture D Blink, you’ll miss her D G On your wedding day won’t you save me a card? D G Cause one day we’ll be living in the same old city E G And I’ll say let's start a band and mean it really D You can kick a girl while she's down A E I’m sure that I’ll see you around G D Don’t tell me you’ve forgotten how it feels to be an optimist D7 D Come here won’t you give me a kiss goodbye G It never won’t make my father cry D G But it’s only gonna k**l you if you let it G D G D You’re always gonna win what you’re bettin’
