Will Varley - Newborn

^D#This town bleeds like an o^Fmpen w^Cmound ^CmYou found no peace in a re^A#nted r^D#oom ^D#And every brick sings a di^Fmfferent t^Cmune ^CmEither kissed or cried on e^A#very a^D#venue ^D#Well as she steals an hour from the da^Fmrkest ^Cmnight ^CmWraps it up in gold and gi^A#ves me some l^D#ight ^D#‘til there's nothing but shivers going d^Fmown my ^Cmspine ^CmRather wake for an hour than s^A#leep for a lifet^D#ime ^D#Well I make my way through the rain t^Fmorn s^Cmtreet ^CmPast the drunks and their pi^A#eces of m^D#eat ^D#The alcohol now clouds th^Fmeir m^Cminds ^CmSouls are wishing for c^A#losing t^D#ime

^CmAnd the coat she bought is ^A#bound to keep me w^D#arm ^CmButtons are hanging o^A#ff, sleeves are t^G#orn ^CmThe wind outside h^A#owls like a newbo^D#rn

^D#Please tell me why I’m here b^Fmefore you tell me to s^Cmtay ^CmThe big bang doesn’t care ^A#if I p^D#ray ^D#Well I could fill my time in a ^Fmmillion ^Cmways ^CmPut a little bit of sunshine i^A#n my d^D#ay ^D#There’s still a swing on the o^Fmld oak t^Cmree ^CmWhere we used to play, my br^A#other and ^D#me ^D#And sometimes I feel like g^Fmoing h^Cmome ^CmBut home is a childhood me^A#mory ^{D# D#}Well I cried a tear when I h^Fmeard the ^Cmnews ^CmReally nothing that I could s^A#ay or ^D#do ^D#It’s the hardest lesson I ^Fmever lea^Cmrned ^CmLight a candle just to wat^A#ch it ^D#burn

^CmSo you get caught up in a r^A#aging winter st^D#orm All the l^Cmights are off and the cu^A#rtains are dr^G#awn You can l^Cmive like a king but you ^A#die like a newbor^D#n

^D#Well I rolled a take me from place ^Fmto pl^Cmace ^CmGonna let this hair grow fr^A#om my ^D#face ^D#And where I’m bound I ca^Fmnnot te^Cmll ^CmIf you believe the bible then I’m bo^A#und for ^D#hell ^D#Well I got a lover now she ^Fmgot ^Cmme ^CmShe knows a place inside ^A#my dre^D#ams ^D#If I sell this ring it’ll mak^Fme me ^Cmsad ^CmI’ll buy me a brand new sl^A#eeping^D# bag ^D#There’s a map of the s^D#/Dtars on her ch^Cmest There’s a uni^G#verse sit^A#ting behind her e^D#yes But I’ll ^D#meet you at ^D#/D6 after some r^Cmest We’ll get pa^G#id, we’ll get d^A#runk and we’ll ge^D#t by

^CmChase the su^A#nset until the m^D#orning We’ll s^Cmleep through a t^A#housand world w^G#ars And I’ll ^Cmsmile like a widow but ^A#cry like a newbor^D#n
