Verse 1:
EmC
I have not been writing that many new songs
GD
How I wish I could stay longer, how I wish I'd never gone
EmC
And you have not been writing me as often as I wish
GD
And sometimes I think I left you just to see if I'd be missed
EmC
And I saw my fortune scrawled out up against the wall
GD
In a crowded marketplace in a town I can't recall
EmC
And the teller told me that I would be young and I would fall
GD
And my new friends all assured me that it all was surely false
-xD-x
And back at home
Chorus:
EmC
You found religion in a dirty crystal ball
GD
In the back of a dollar store in that shopping mall
EmC
And I found religion out in San Cristobal
GDEm
Now I feel that I've come far enough to give you a call, give you a call
Interlude -x2-: Em - C - G - DVerse 2:
EmC
I have not been writing as often as I hoped
GD
But there are some things you're good at and then some you can't control
EmC
And you have not been visiting; I can't say that I mind
GD
Cause every time you go somewhere, you leave somewhere behind
EmC
And I saw my fortune scrawled out up against the wall
GD
In a crowded marketplace whose name I cannot recall
EmC
And the teller told me that I would be young and I would fall
GD
But I didn't think he meant so soon, no, not so soon at all
And back at home
Chorus:
EmC
You found religion in a dirty crystal ball
GD
In the back of a dollar store in that shopping mall
EmC
And I found religion out in San Cristobal
GD
Now I feel that I've come far enough to give you a call
C
So I'm calling now, but it says I don't got the number right
Interlude -x2-: Em - C - G - DVerse 3:
EmC
Your body looks to me a way it never has before
GD
And is this what's making you so sad? And what you did this for
EmC
She said your body looks to me a way it never has before
GD
And is this what's making you so sad? And I can't do this anymore
Chorus:
EmC
And I found religion in a dirty bathroom stall
GD
In the back of a liquor store in that mini mall
EmC
And you found religion when you realized you could fall
GD
Now you say that you've come far enough to give me a call
C
So you're calling now, but I lie and I tell you that I've moved
Interlude -x2-: Em - C - G - DOutro:
EmC
Everything's brand
GD
Everything's brand
EmCG - D
Everything's brand
EmC
Everything's brand
GD
Everything's brand
EmCGD - Em
Everything's brand new
