A

[Verse 1]
  A
I've been throwing stones at your window
                                       F#m
Praying hard the wind might blow me through, blow me through
 A
Talking to the friends that I don't have
                                             F#m
Why am I surprised they got no clue, got no clue


[Chorus 1]
 D
If there is such thing as a heaven
Bm                                    A
I just pray to God that I get there soon
      D                                        Bm                        A
The devil made a call from a payphone stall, telling me not to talk to you


[Verse 2]
     A                                                            F#m  Em F#m G#5
If you look close you can tell those doing best ain't doing well
 A                                                                  F#m  Em F#m G#5
Putting your demons up on the shelf only gives them time to themselves
   A                                                                        F#m  Em F#m G#5
I dropped my worries in a wishing well, never hit the bottom far as I can tell
      A                                                                               F#m  Em F#m G#5
The preacher's writing prayers that he thinks might sell, never found peace in holy hell


[Chorus 2]
 D
If there is such thing as a heaven
 Bm                                   A
I just pray to God that I get there soon
     D                                          Bm                           A
The devil makes a call from a payphone stall, telling me not to see this through


[Verse 3]
       A
This life's a test, infinite jest
                                      D
This pain that sits inside my chest, echos into emptiness

And I sell my soul for a million dollars
   A
Jesus Christ, my heart's a mess

But ain't that why you love me best
   D
Scream until there's nothing left, there's nothingness, there's nothing less


[Verse 4]
       F#m
Than people hanging in suspense

Sins that they could not confess
 A
No we can't go on like this

But the devil needs his witnesses
      F#m
My zealous overconfidence

It looked so nice inside my head
         D
It's something that I cannot fix
                                    A
But baby, that's not mine to give away
                          F#m
That's not mine to give away
                         A
That's not mine to give away
                          F#m
That's not mine to give away
 D Bm A
Ooh
 D Bm A
Ooh
