Hard As Nails

   Em
Hard smiles
   G
Softest voice
  C
Toes they touch the carpet steps
  Am                             Em           G
Out the door into the breasts of you Vagrant Queen
 C
Show my hands to warmest touch
 Am                             Em           G
Whispering as you dress me up a new bride to be
C
Down the isle our side walk calls
Am
A clergy of empty cars
    Em
Cold night
      G
Silent priest

C  Am

[Verse 2]
       Em                G
Clearing cracks walking tall
C                                Am
Promise you the moon and stars climbing rooftops of shopping malls
  Em
Big you
     G
Little me
 C                                   Am
Sharing tricks and secret trades through the fields
                         Em
Where shadows play their games
             G    C
A toast to youth upon the school unto the halls
    Am
Write our names upon the walls

   Em            G
Our flag flying free

C  Am

  Em             G
Our land not to keep

 C  Am Asus2

     Em             G     C
Bare feet, maroon soles leading us back to my room
   Am                              Em           G
Behind the shed I offer you my name but you refuse

  C                    Am
Kindly watch over me Mary mother saint to be

Em  G

 C                     Am
Kindly watch over me Mary mother saint to be
