Down half step

Intro

(Verse I)

 They're all throwing stones at the back of my home

kicking the dirt in the air

 Well I left to think while they're thinking I'm stoned

Well I had no cause to be there

 And out of this town while I had something left

bury the fear in my head

 Well it's all just the same cause the city's just as bare

 It's full of people like me

(Chorus)

 We've all run away

Everyone wants but nobody needs

Silver and gold

 Well everyone wants, but nobody needs

Interlude

Shorter)]

(Verse II)

 Well I ran to the woods and I preached to the birds

St. Francis talking to me

 Well they said I'd find love in a pain I'd endure

If I would just listen to him

 With my ear to the ground and my heart full of lead

 Well I quietly listened to him teach

 But with tears in his eyes, he just looked straight through me

I awkwardly waited for speech

(Chorus)

 We've all run away

Everyone wants but nobody needs

Silver and gold

Everyone wants, but nobody needs

[Interlude w/ changed piano part]

Once I was sure that this love was the truth

 Well I quickly spit in his face

 I returned to my home, friends and I, we threw stones

Bragging that we knew the way

[hummed chorus 1x until the end]
