Cecilia And Her Selfhood Chords

Capo 4th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

No instruments)

In the center of the city was a statue and her twin

And together they watched over everything

Oh, they saw me when I stumbled and they watched you help me stand

I'd swear Cecilia and her sister had it all planned

Then one morning I was walking, from my window to your door

Well I nearly hit the ground with what I saw

Cecilia had been broken, while her sister had been spared

And the vandals had scattered the pieces everywhere

Verse a

Guitar enters here, Strum once for the first Verse):

FmAnd I knew it made me Cwonder Amwhat kind of twisted Fmmind

 Would ever Churt her, so Amthoughtless and Fmunkind

 But a monster so Ccruel can't be Amthat hard to Fm7find

FmBoys

 Verse B:

 So I Cstarted wearing warpaint and I gathered all my friends

 For CAmecilia we'd be hunters 'till the end C

She was built for a perfect picture, but she came to represent

 Though I Amguess I never understood Cexactly what it meant

 Verse A:

 Oh I know FmCecilia and her Csister were just Amstatues made of Fmstone

 But I still Cmissed her and now her Amsister's all aFmlone

 No that just won't Cdo!

 So let's Amraid the vandal's Fm7homes

FmBoys

 Verse C:

 So we Cventured out at sunrise

 With our torches and our spears Am

 And our Cshotguns and our fears

 And our carefully hidden tears Am

 For Cecilia, CCecilia

 Verse A:

 Now I'm Fmthinking of the Cmoment

 When we can Amlook them in the Fmeye

 And make them Csorry, 'cause Amtonight they're gonna Fmdie

 Yeah, we'll shoot them up Cdead!

 Leave their Ambodies where they Fm7lie

FmBoys

 Verse D:

 SoC now we're following the pieces of Cecilia to the door

 Every Amshattered limb repeatedly reCminding us of what we're searching for

And the sleepers have woken for now they have an aim

 Yes they're Amquite aware of the cold hard fact that the Ccity's loss could be their gain

 Verse A:

 They are Fmdreaming of, the Cfeeling of!

 A Amtrophy in their Fmarms, a hero's Cwelcome, claiming Amwomen with their Fmcharms

 Oh I'm sorry if I Churt you, you know I Amswear I meant no Fm7harm

FmBaby

 Verse E:

 So the Ctrail, it keeps on Em7turning as we Amwander through the Cm7streets

 I keep Fmlooking at, the Cpieces of Em7Cecilia at my Fmfeet

 But the Cstrangest thing occurs to me

When I stop to look around

 Oh I'd Amswear we are returning to the Ccenter of the town!

Verse a

Strum once for last verse.):

 Yes we're Fmback here, where we Cstarted

 Where AmCecilia used to standFm, but her sister looks Cdifferent

 Please, Amtell me boys, if you Fmcan?

 Is that a smile on her Cface?

 Is that a Amhammer in her Fm7hand?
