Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]You officers that are stationed in front
of the stage behind [G]the barricade[D]
You will go to Mr. Maury Shapiro,
the first aid [G]man[D]
And he will furnish you with
[G]ear[D]plu[G]gs
So as to [D]keep you from having a headache
[G]If [D]he [G]run[D]s out of earplugs, he
has got [G]some cotton[D]
We will not allow any dancing,
run[G]ning up [D]and down [G]the [D]aisle
Is that clear with everybody?
[G][D]

[Verse 2]
'Cause I don't wanna be born,
born again
But not right now,
cause don't take me
Yeah but God said, son it's time to go
And when you'll return,
I don't know just yet
But even stars, they die,
when they get old
The precious ones that we used to hold
So if you gonna shoot,
better hit your mark
Send that arrow,
send it through [G]my heart[D]
My heart

[Verse 3]
He said, [D]this time I won't
get turned away
This time I won't get turned away
This time I won't get turned away

[Verse 4]
She [D]said, but Joan of Arc,
a walk in the dark
She said I've seen how the world ends
First they love you, then they kill you
Then they love you again, and again again

[Verse 5]
She [D]said
This time I won't get turned away
This time I won't get turned away
This time I won't get turned away

[Verse 6]
She [D]said
This time I won't get turned away
This time I won't get turned away

[Interlude 1]
This time I won't get turned away

[D]Jesus Christ, what did you do
To deserve what they done to you?

To deserve what they done to

[Verse 8]
[D]Downtown, see what we got
We got the riot
Oh come on downtown, see what we got
We got [G]the riot[D]
We know something ain't
right
We know something ain't right
I said, come on downtown,
see what we got
We got the riot

[Verse 9]
We got the riot
[D]
Hahahaha, ha ha,
Arcade Fire ladies and gentlemen
Wow, that was great
We didn't upset him, was that part
of the show or was he?
You look gorgeous as well
Don't often see an attractive woman
playing the hurdy gurdy well done
