Awake In The Dirt Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

BmDad I knEmow

 You can't Asee

 My actions F♯as

 A plea for Bmpeace

 You can't get Empast

 The rocks stained Ared

 The nail bomb F♯blast

 The doctor, Bmdead

 Your prairie Emdream

 Your liberal Aheart

 Your patient F♯mind

 Your father's Bmarms

 They just won't Emdo

 They just can't Afit

 It's them, not F♯Marx

 You can blame for Dthis

 Alive in the A♯dirt A D

 Alive in the Emdirt

 I'm at F♯peace, sainted and Bmwaiting

 For my Fperfect pain to speak through me again
