Four Letter Word Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Mary came back in the middle
of [D]December
With a scar she never could remember
[Em]She was always so high in school
And [C]no one ever knew the difference
[G]Then we'd cut class and we'd
dream about the [D]ocean
Was it you or a chemical
[Em]emotion?
Everything was crystal clear
And [C]you could sing the words to that song
[D]I could never f[C]ind

[Verse 2]
[G]Hurry up now its the middle
of [D]the story
Where the king goes out in
the blaze of glory
[Em]And everything is a mystery
And [C]We will never die
You're a [G]four letter word
that I used to know
A [D]four letter word that I used to know
You're a [Em]four letter word
that I used to know
Like [C]hope, and pain, and Mary.

[Verse 3]
[G]Lyin' in the sand while the moon was risin'
[D]Full of thoughts and
the feelins I was [Em]hidin
All the words that I tried to say
[C]I never did reveal
The sum[G]mer flew by and I
headed off [D]to school
Met a girl, I lost touch with you.
[Em]Now everything is crystal clear
[C]But still I find that somehow you
keep [D]runnin through my [C]mind

[Verse 4]
[G]Hurry up now its the middle
of [D]the story
Where the king goes out in
the blaze of glory
[Em]And everything is a mystery
And [C]we will never die
You're a [G]four letter word
that I used to know
A [D]four letter word that I used to know
You're [Em]a four letter
word that I used to know
Like [C]hope, and pain, and Mary.
[Am][D][C]

[Verse 5]
[G]
[D]Hop[Am]e com[C]es [G]in circles
[D]Pain fades away
[Em]Lyin on the beach with
the world out of reach
[D]Me [C]and Mary

[Verse 6]
[G]Hurry up now its the end of [D]the story
Where the king goes out in
the blaze of [Em]glory
Everything is a mystery
And [C]we will never die
[G]Shit seems to happen for a rea[D]son
Was it me or the end of [Em]the season?
Did you fall off your saddle [C]while you
were comin down
You're a [G]four letter word
that I used to know
[D]A four letter word that I used to know
You're [Em]a four letter
word that I used to know
[C]Like hope, and pain, and Mar[G]y.[D]
