Poor Girl A Long Way From Heaven Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][F][C][G]
[F][C]

[Verse 1]
[G]The human
mind is a pile of shit
New life takes root in it
Grows into the most complic
[C]ated forma[G]tions[F][C]
[G]With stunning colors and
branches reaching up
Toward the heaven that
they long to touch
Trying to get just [F]a brief audi
[C]ence with [G]the sun[F][C]

[Verse 2]
[Em]They wanna ask the s[B]un to shine down
[Em]And warm the pile of shit
[B]they come from
[Em]These desperate sprouts
all [B]clustered around
Like a gos[Am]pel choir with
their [D]arms [G]raised up

[Verse 3]
Poor [F]girl [C]a long way from hea[G]ven[F][C][G]
Poor [F]girl [C]a long way from heaven
[G][F][C][G][F][C]

[Verse 4]
[G]Apr[F]il 4th[C], 1[G]993
God came [F]down [C]to talk with me
[G]Threw a stone at my win[F]dow
to [C]get my at[G]tention[F][C]
[G]She motioned to me [F]to climb dow[C]n my wall
[G]I shook my hea[F]d, I was afr[C]aid to [G]fall
I was young and I [F]didn't wanna
[C]trouble my mother
[G][F][C]

[Verse 5]
[Em]And now I am a wretc[B]hed old crone
[Em]Who swears that God once
[B]came to her home
[Em]I keep a lone candle burni[B]ng
upon my little win[Am]dowsill
So she [D]knows I'm home
[G][F][C]

[Verse 6]
[G]
Poor [F]girl a [C]long way from [G]heaven
[F]Poo[C]r g[G]irl a lo[F]ng wa[C]y
[G]from [F]heaven[C][G]
How they'll [F]talk [C]about [G]you
How they'll [F]spill your [C]blood[G]
How they'll [F]love you [C]when you're [G]gone for good
