A

A                          D
Come on in my weary friend
Bm                                A
The welcome here is endless
A                                           D
These fears of yours, like painted whores
          Bm                                  E
They will not stay the night
  D               E           D                           E
If all your life you've done what's right
           D                 Bm         
Don't say you felt
              A
Obliged

A                                           D
Come along, here's your timid tongue
        Bm                      A
Too shy to tell your stories
A                                D
This pain in you so far removed
           Bm                                  E
From anything you've known
       D                E        D                    E    
So I won't condone another moan
                   D               Bm
Not when everything
          A
Is fine

G

                      D                           A         G
So when in drought learn to dance
                        D                       A         D 
And pray the dead would return
                                                A
And dream smoke without fire
        G                          D                             A
Just come see me again when it burns

A D Bm A
A D Bm E
D E D E
D Bm A

            D          
Somewhere along the way
           A
Well, I was lead astray
           Bm 
By a wolf in Noah's clothing
E
It was a brilliant disguise
          Bm                          C#m
And I forgot that life existed
                          D                                   E
I thought it was just some kind of game
                                       D                         C#m
And that's what brings me to your doorstep
               Bm                                    Bm
Though I don't know why I came
           A
Today

G

                  D                      A     G
Standing still in the dust
             D                      A   D
Giving up on the rain
                                            A        G
And as for smoke without fire
                            D                    A
I've already laid in the flame

G A G A
D A

G                                             A
I've already laid in the flame
G                                              A
Brother, be afraid of the flames
                           G              A
Well I ain't afraid of the flames
