Bible Song

C

No strangers in this town
No one moves without making a sound
F                                       G
You live and die within the borders and lines
C
No one dies without paying their fines

No lovers in this town
The moon's full but it sure ain't round
F                               G
And just because you lie in his bed
      C
Don't mean you meant the things you said

F
They marry young in these parts
                   C
They work the factories
F
So I ran as fast as I could
Through the tall grass and the midnight woods
   Dm                     G                   C
So nobody would sing some bible song over me

My cousin died in his sleep
Forty pills, two kids to keep
F                                 G
And how will she explain to those kids
          C
About the sorry thing daddy did

F
They marry young in these parts
                                   C
They raise their kids and set them free
F
So I ran as fast as I could
Through the tall grass and the midnight woods
   Dm                     G                   C
So nobody would sing some bible song over me

F
They buried him out in the cold
                              C
He was only twenty-four years old
F
How his mother came undone
                    G      C
When the choir sang hallelujah

F
I ran as fast as I could
                                        C
Through the tall grass and the midnight woods
F
I ran as fast as I could
                                        C
Through the tall grass and the midnight woods

     F                  C
Hallelujah, hallelujah, ahhh
     F                     C
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
     F           G      C
Hallelujah, hallelujah
