The Messenger Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[A5]ark [Am]me with fear, I'm trembling
Send someone else [Dm]instead
I know [Am]my world is ending
I can't repay [Dm]my debt

[Verse 2]
[Am]Can I carry such a heavy burden?
Can I move when I am [Dm]paralyzed?
[Am]I see a fire behind a heavy curtain
I lean in closer and I [Dm]close my eye[G5]s

[Verse 3]
[Am]Kiss the coals, breathe in smoke
And [G5]I say, [Dm]here I am, [C5]send me[Am][E]
[Am]Lifts my soul,
free and so un[Dm]afraid[C5]
[E]Here I am, [Em]send [Am]me, [G]send me
Free [G5]and s[Dm]o un[C5]afraid[C][Am]
[F]Here [E]I am, send [Am]me

[Verse 4]
Mark me with fire and [Am]Send
me among the living dead
They cannot comprehend me
I [Dm]watch the sickness spread
[Am]

[Verse 5]
Now, can they hear me when their
hearts are hardened?
Now, can they see me
when they [Dm]close their eyes?
[Am]So let me tell you I'm an easy target
A wooden [Dm]saw is quite a way to die

[Verse 6]
[Am]Kiss [G5]the c[Am]oals, breathe [G5]in smoke
[Am]And I sa[Dm]y, "Here I am, s[C5]end me[Am][Em]
[Am]Lifts my soul, free and so un[Dm]afraid
[G5]Here[Dm] I am[C5],[Em]
[E]send [G5]me, s[Am]end me[G][G5]
[G]Free and so [Dm]unafraid
[C5]Here[Em] I am, send [Am]me

[Interlude 1]
[Am][G5][Am]

[Verse 7]
[Am]Here I am, send me
