Вступление
[Verse]
Am F Em G
Hope, was not a Smith family tradition
Am F Em G
Neither was coming home sober with your paycheck still intact
Am F Em G
At least tension was a tangible situation
Am F Em G
Unlike fate, and disease, and the cricket songs of regret
Am F Em G
Words, were not the Smith family way of discussing
Am F Em G
What they all knew was a curse in a language children can't speak
Am F Em G
The devil got his tongue in a state of perpetual progress
Am F Em G
Finding new ways of adding more splinters to the blood in our veins
[Chorus]
Am G C Em
Hallelujah! Our little boy of ten has reached the top of the field again
Am G C Em
But he's gone, out like the photograph you had perched on the mantelpiece
Am G C Em
Who's to say that if he'd gotten off that rattlesnake he would both survived and been great?
Am G C E Am
But he's gone just like all your other kids I assume, never to be bitten again
[Bridge]
F Am G
Stick by the phone 'til the wind dies down
F Am G
Pray for polar ice caps to flood this town
F Am G
He'll call her with instructions for old and young alike
F Am G
She knows he'll disagree when she says let them die (let them die)
F Am G
This ain't no disaster this is the prince of parlor tea
F Am G
Reclaiming wooden tables on behalf of the king and queen
F Am G
The contents of your stomach fall within our lavish realm guards
F Am G
Grind them up, we can't survive without our champagne and cologne
[Chorus]
Am G C Em
And Hallelujah! Our little friend of god missed his tetanus shot and he got lockjaw
Am G C Em
Now he's gone, folded like a deck of cards buried out by the wishing well
Am G C Em
I saw his ghost looking just like he did in life with his nose turned up at immigrant rights
Am G C E
Now he's poised, to haunt us for eternity, I would know if I was spiritual
Am G C Em
Hallelujah! Our little boy of ten has reached the top of the field again
Am G C Em
But he's gone, out like the photograph you had perched on the mantelpiece
Am G C Em
Who's to say that if he'd gotten off that rattlesnake he would both survived and been great?
Am G C E Am
But he's gone just like all your other kids I assume, never to be bitten again
