The Narrative


Tom: E

Intro: D2 A2 E x3
       B2

F#-            D2                      A2
You were only giving me the time of day
F#-            D2             A2                 E
And it was hard for me to keep that smile straight
F#-            D2                      A2       E
In the corner of the bar around the way from me
F#-            D2                      A2
But I knew what would become of us that night
F#-            D2             A2                 E
Everybody else was judging through the corners of their eyes
F#-            D2             A2                 
And I could hardly tell you any single truth
E
Or move

D2 
And hallelujah
A2             
Me and all my friends
E                 D2
Waiting for the sun
A2
To make us new again
E                 D2
Or finally burn up
A2                   E        D2      E
And bring us to our end

F#-            D2             A2                 
We are not all quite as blessed as we may seem
F#-            D2             A2                 E
I've got these looks but I can't keep my body clean
F#-            D2             A2                 E
But I know that I can use my tongue to speak and sing

D2 
And hallelujah
A2             
Me and all my friends
E                 D2
Waiting for the sun
A2
To make us new again
E                 D2
Or finally burn up
A2                   E        D2      E
And bring us to our end

And hallelujah
I am free again
And praise the good old lord
But do not wait for him
'cause he won't save your soul
Or clean it of its sins
So let's soak in them

Hallelujah
Me and all my friends
Waiting for the sun
To make us new again
Or finally burn up
And bring us to our end
