Sun Bleached Flies Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][G][D][G][C][G]

[Verse 1]
Sun bleached [G]flies
sitting in [D]the windowsill
[G]Waiting for the[D] day they escape
[G]They talk all[D] abo[G]ut that mon[D]ey and how[G]
their babies are always changing
While they're [D]breathing in
[C]the poison of [G]the paint
[D]What I wouldn't give to be
[G]in Church this Sunday
[D]Listening to the choir,
so heartfelt, [G]all singing
God [D]loves you,
but not enough [G]to save you
So, baby [D]girl,
good luck taking care [C]of yourself

[Verse 2]
[G]So I said fin[A]e,
'cause that's how my daddy [G]raised me
If they strike [A]once then you just
hit [D]'em twice as [G]hard
But in the [A]en d,
if I bend under [G]the weight that they gave me
Then this [D]heart would break and fall
as [A]twice as [G]far

[Interlude 1]
[A][G][D][A][G][D]

[Verse 3]
We all [D]know how it [G]goes[D]
The more it hurts, the less [G]it [D]shows
But I still feel like they all [G]know,
and that's [D]why I can never go [A]back [G]home
And I [D]spend my [G]life [D]watching
it go by from [G]the sidelines
[Dsus4]And God, [D]I've tried[G],
but I [D]think it's about time I put [C]up a [G]fight

[Verse 4]
But [A]I don't mind 'cause that's how my
daddy [G]raised me (how my daddy raised me)
If they strike [A]once then you just hit 'em twice
[C]as [G]hard (hit 'em twice as hard)
But I always [A]knew that in the end
no one was [G]coming to save me
So I just prayed and I keep praying and
[Em]praying [G]and praying[D]

[Verse 5]
If it's meant to be [D]then it will [G]be (oh, oh)
So I [A]met him there and told him I
[Bm]beli[G]eve [D](oh, oh)
Singing if it's meant to be
[C]then it'll be [G](oh)
I forgive [Bm]it all as it[A] comes
back to me [G](back to me)
[D]If it's meant to be then [G]it will
be (oh, it will be, yeah)
So I [A]met him there and told him [Bm]I
[G]believe (I believe, yeah)
[D]Singing if it's meant to be [C]then
it will [G]be (oh, oh)
I forgive [Bm]it all as it[A] comes back
to [G]me (it comes back to me)
[D]If it's meant to be then [G]it'll be
(it'll be, it'll be, it'll be)
So I met [A]him there and told him I
believe (I believe, yeah)
[G]Singing [D]if it's meant to be
then it will [G]be (yeah)
And I for[Bm]give it all [A]as it
comes back to [G]me (oh)

[Verse 6]
I'm [D]still praying for that
house in Neb[G]raska
By the high[D]way,
out on the edge of [G]town
[D]Dancing with the [A]win[D]dows [A]open[D]
[G]I can't let go
when something's broken
It's all I [A]know and it's all I want

[Outro 1]
