Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[Em][G][C]
[G][Bm]

[Verse 1]
In the [Em]middle of hell
lies a [G]little St. Peter
in a [C]hospital bed
burn[G]ing up

[Verse 2]
[Em][Bm]
With a [Em]cloth to his head
he is [G]ridden by fever
and I [C]can't even tell
whether the demons have [G]won[Bm]

[Verse 3]
And [Am]his mother is there with his [D]brother
tied to [Em]her [G]back[Em]
[Am]praying as hard as she [D]can to a god in
[G]a land that I think he [Bm]forgot

[Verse 4]
In the [Em]middle of hell
where [G]death by mosquito
is as [C]everyday as my coffee
or your ci[G]garette

[Verse 5]
[Bm]And she says God b[Em]less me
she says God [Bm]bless me
and I shake [G]my head
cause I can't [C]see God in
this hospital [Bm]bed

[Verse 6]
She says [Em]God bless me
she says God [Bm]bless me
and I look [G]away
but as she lets [C]go of my hand for
[Bm]the first time in [Em]this place

[Verse 7]
[Em]I pray
[Bm]Amen
Amen
[G][C]

[Verse 8]
[Bm]
I got [Em]plenty to give
[G]but there's nothing to offer
and the [C]little I brought
comes far [G]too [Bm]late[B]
[Bm]But

[Verse 9]
[Em]I urge him to leave
with a [G]bottle of water
he [C]is 7 years old
sleeping outside [G]pearly [Bm]gates

[Verse 10]
And his [Am]mother looks at me with [D]eyes
I will never [Em]let g[Bm]o[G]
[Em]they are [Am]angry and sad beyond [D]measure and mad
with a child-[G]bearing love love that I [Bm]know

[Verse 11]
In the [Em]middle of hell
we just [G]sit with each other
on a [C]hospital bed
begging for death [G]to go [Em]home
[Bm]And she says

[Verse 12]
[Em]God bless me
she says God [Bm]bless me
and I shake [G]my head
cause I can't [C]see God in
this hospital [Bm]bed

[Verse 13]
She says [Em]God bless me
she says God [Bm]bless me
and I look [G]away
but as she lets [C]go of my hand for
[G]the first [Bm]time in this [Em]place

[Verse 14]
[Em]I pray
[Bm]Amen[G]
Amen
[C]

[Verse 15]
[Bm]
In the [Em]middle of hell
lies [G]a little St. Peter
in a [C]hospital bed
burning [G]up
[Bm]
