Tears of Rage Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]We [Bm]carri[D]ed[G][D]
[A]you [Bm]in our arms
[G]On Independence Day[Em],
[C]And now you'd throw us all[G] aside
[D]And put us on our way.
Oh what dear daugh[A]ter [Bm]'neath the sun
[G]Would treat a father so,[Em]
[C]To wait upon him[G] hand and foot
[D]And always tell him, "No"?
[F#m]Tears of rage, [Bm]tears of grief,[G]
Why [D]must I always be the thief?
[F#m]Come to me now, you know
[Bm]We're so [D]alone[G]
And life is [D]brief.

[Verse 2]
[D]
We pointed out [Bm]the way to go
And [G]scratched your name [Em]in sand,
[C]Though you just thought
it was [G]nothing more
Than [D]a place for you to stand.
Now, I want you to know
that [Bm]while we watched,
You dis[G]cover there was no one [Em]true.[C]
Most ev'ry[G]body really thought
It was [D]a childish thing to do.
[F#m]Tears of rage, [Bm]tears of gri[G]ef,
Must I [D]always be the thief?
[F#m]Come to me now, you know
[Bm]We're so [G]low
And life is [D]brief.

[Verse 3]
[D]
It was [A]all [D]very [Bm]painless
When [G]you went out to re[Em]ceive
[C]All that false instr[G]uction
[D]Which we never could believe.
And now the heart is [Bm]filled with [D]gold
[G]As if it was a [Em]purse.
[C]But, oh, what kind of lov[G]e is this
[D]Which goes from bad to worse?
[F#m]Tears of rage, [Bm]tears of grief,
[G]Must I alw[D]ays be the thief?
[F#m]Come to me now, you know
[Bm]We're so [D]low[G]
And life is [D]brief.
