if God takes you he leaves
C Geach footprint of love
C Gand kindness behind
which is where you once stood
and i know you're afraid
C Gto get on the plane
C Gafter what happened that day
and selfishly i want you here in my way
but animals come
C Gand animals go
C Gbut love is just a laundry line
we hang on unto
we're dried out by the sun
C Gand when you think your turn is done
C Gyou end up getting dirty
and its all again begun
G D
now words i think are just
C Ga noisy dirty wind
makes the trouble we get in
Am Dso why do we speak?
G D
now we made another war
C Gthat's what men are good for
men with stupid insecurities
Am Dnot a lot more
G D
and satisfied they try
C Git's written about a gun
but who the hell reads history?
Am Dapparently not men
G D C G C G Am D
G D
cause nothing's guaranteed
except the politics of need
C Gdid the Romans see the ship go down
Am Dwere they asleep?
G D
I shouldn't expect to live
And I shouldn't expect to die
C GBut I wouldnt mind being beside you, dear
Am DOn that laundry line to dry
G D
And for my grandma and brother
My father and my mother
C GAnd you my sweetest lover
Am DTo you all I will say
G D
Merry Christmas I love you
And God is above you
C GMerry christmas I love you
C GAnd God is above you
Merry christmas I love you
