The Chosen Few Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Well the rain was pouring down
[A]on our little statio[Em]n
Where you [G]swore every
word to me was [A]true
And [D]I forced a smile as y[A]ou
said for [Em]the third time
[G]Things that hurt the same
when they were brand [F#m]new[A]
[G]Sha la la la'. the lovers
as they [A]walked on by in the rain
[G]La la la la'. cried the lonely too,
[A]yeah
We're [G]taking so much from our situ[A]ation
It [G]is so bright about the [A]chosen
Well, the [D]ghosts of the past
and [A]all of the negative vi[Em]olence
Rain [G]down on the little streets
where we fought it [A]out
[D]Taking bets upon the chal
[A]lenge for the [Em]title
Before [G]we started out on
the final [F#m]bout[A]
[G]Sha -la -la -la, chime the church bells
on the [A]corners of the aisle
The [G]sacred sound of eternity
rang [A]through, yeah
I [G]dreamt to make light of
the heavy [A]weather
Which had [G]cast dispersions
on the chosen [A]few
Well, all right, [G]Christina,
I'm completely con[A]fused
If you break part of a [G]contract,
is it [A]all untrue?
You build a [D]wall up [G]around you,
like a fortified [A]town
And I'm standing out[G]side,
try[A]ing to shut it [D]down
We're in the [G]18th line of the Versailles,
I've cornered the cross[A]bar
Cut to [G]pieces by your overwhelming
sense of [A]truth
Which had [D]allowed you
to [A]become a wounded [Em]party
I know [G]I'll take me the role of a misfit,
[F#m]yeah[A]
The [G]clouds that you formed
have backdropped to this [A]passion flame
Well, I [G]had not almost pulled
the plug on [A]you, yeah
And sev[G]eral stars shone down
in a naked won[A]der
At the [G]last return to the chosen
[A][G][A][G][A][G][A]
[G][A][G]
[F#m]You
