Jars Of Clay


Tom: A

Intro:  F#m   A     D   (2x)


Verse 1:
        F              G               F             G       F    G    F    G
You can blame it on my pride or the spell that I'm under
        F                G             F           G        F    G    F   G
I get to fight with the lightning, talk back to the thunder
        F              G               F             G       F    G    F    G
I want more wind in this tornado cause it isn't moving fast enough yet
                F              G        F            G       F    G    F    G
Gonna burn this temple to the ground once I have the fuses set


Chorus:
              A                     D
But after the fight is over will I talk so tough
        A           F#m          G         D
Will I run for cover after the gloves come off
              A                         D
Yeah when the black eye lingers will I stand my ground
           A       F#m              G            D
Return my fists to fingers after the final round


F#m   A     D   (2x)


Verse 2:
         F              G             F             G       F    G    F    G
I have a hand full of feathers and blood stains on my skin
            F              G           F             G       F    G    F    G
Is there an angel left to wrestle, white horses they haven't broken in
       F              G               F             G       F    G    F    G
I get up from the canvas swinging like I think I might just win
          F              G             F             G       F    G    F    G
And we go around and round and round and round again


Chorus:
              A                     D
But after the fight is over will I talk so tough
        A           F#m          G         D
Will I run for cover after the gloves come off
              A                         D
Yeah when the black eye lingers will I stand my ground
           A       F#m              G            D
Return my fists to fingers after the final round


Bridge:
     F#m            D          A            E
Will walking be a reminder of punches I let by
     F#m            D          A            E
Will walking be a reminder of punches I let by
        F#m         A          D
I let by
                    F#m         A          D
Another thorn in my side...           I let by


Chorus:
              A                     D
But after the fight is over will I talk so tough
        A           F#m          G         D
Will I run for cover after the gloves come off
              A                         D
Yeah when the black eye lingers will I stand my ground
           A       F#m              G            D
Return my fists to fingers after the final round

F#m   A     D   
            Will I get by
F#m   A     D
         I let by
