We Dont Eat Chords & Tabs
capo 7
C/G
If this is redemption, why do I bother at all
Em C C/G
There's nothing to mention, and nothing has changed
C D Em
Still I'd rather be working at something, than praying for the rain
C D C/G
So I wander on, till someone else is saved
C/G
I moved to the coast, under a mountain
Em C C/G
Swam in the ocean, slept on my own
C D Em
At dawn I would watch the sun cut ribbons through the bay
C D C/G
I'd remember all the things my mother wrote
Em C C/G
That we don't eat until your father's at the table
Em C C/G
We don't drink until the devil's turned to dust
Em C D Em
Never once has any man I've met been able to love
C D C/G
So if I were you, I'd have a little trust

C/G
Two thousand years, I've been in that water
Em C C/G
Two thousand years, sunk like a stone
C D
Desperately reaching for nets
Em
That the fisherman have thrown
C D C/G
Trying to find, a little bit of hope
C/G
Me I was holding, all of my secrets soft and hid
Em C C/G
Pages were folded, then there was nothing at all
C D Em
So if in the future I might need myself a savior
C D C/G
I'll remember what was written on that wall
Em C C/G
So we don't eat until your father's at the table
Em C C/G
We don't drink until the devil's turned to dust
Em C D Em
Never once has any man I've met been able to love
C D C/G
So if I were you, I'd have a little trust
Am Em
Am I an honest man and true
Em Am
Have i been good to you at all
Am Em
Oh I'm so tired of playing these games
Em
We'd just be running down
G
The same old lines, the same old stories of
C
Breathless trains and, worn down glories
Am C/G
Houses burning, worlds that turn on their own
Em C C/G
So we don't eat until your father's at the table
Em C C/G
We don't drink until the devil's turned to dust
Em C D Em
Never once has any man I've met been able to love
C D C/G
So if I were you my friend, I'd learn to have just a little bit of trust
