C G
Dearly beloved,We're gathered here to mourn,
Dm G
The death of the young one,The death of your first born.
C G
And he tried, tried to understand,Why his lungs gave out.
Dm G
His last dying words went out from them.
Am Single strum
It isn't enough,
For your family.
G
It isn't enough,
For your father.
Dm
But is it enough,
To break your spirits.
Am
And he's breaking,
C
Like a thousand windows.
G
But he's on the pane,
Dm G
That keeps the glass from hitting the floor.
Am C
He's the kind of guy you wish would just leave.
G Dm Am
He wears his heart on his sleeve.
C G
You won't see any pictures,
Dm
With the whole family.
Am C
He doesn't wait, he just goes,
G Dm Am
Out of control, before the cops know.
C G
A man who can kill,
Dm
Two stones with one bird
Please step back from that highway.
Don't you see it goes my way.
Please step back from that highway.
Am (single Stums until G)
If you're number eight,
C
Then he's number nine.
G Dm
It adds up half the time.
Am C
A teller with no fortune.
G Dm
A body left out to find.
Am C
I once was told,
G
That white gold,
Dm
Looks so pretty on your skin.
Am C
The jewelery, which covers up,
G Dm
All the rusting within.

version 2
Tuning:normal E
the whole song is played on acoustic, with some electric, use an electric/acoustic.
Don't let the piano mess you up in the song it really makes it hard to hear all of
the rythym. After about 5 window smashings,I was ok. Moderate speed song.
