Love On Parole Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

CI was blessed to Ffight with you allG night

I hadn't even know what fun

Oh the Amwar was dressed in Fscarlet and inG white, like the whore of Babylon

CShook your conscience, Fheld it to the lGight, tried to see what was written on it

I said, Am"Baby don't ya think, you're being a Glittle bit drastic?

There are Fthings in this world that you can't Gbuy with plastic.

You Amblew through your cash like a GKlondike miner.

Someday you'll Fmaybe feel the lash of the IntellGigent Designer."

Oh, yourC doctor died, Baby

I Fbelieve he lost a-hold of Ghimself

Oh, it wasn'tAm a homicide

Your Gdoctor was in Fsuch poorG health

And I'm a Clot like him

I bFelieve I've lost contGrol

And those are the Amterms of our lGove on paroFle

Am G C F

COooh, they found us out in Fpavilions of doubt

And cathGedrals of longing and death without warning

The roomAm readied itself for thatG transfer of power

When Cyou rode right through in your penuGltimate hour

And said, "I canC see the billboards and the history written large."

You said, "That Gwas no-one's wedding, Baby, that was Picket's Charge."

And for Amall of your talk of endiGng the fray,

There's not a paFrt of your heart that wouldG have it that way

Oh, ya cAmouldn't make aG cup of tea

WithFout a battle strategGy

Which doesn't feel Amright until iGt takes itF toll

And those are the Amterms and conditions of our loGve on parolFe

C F G Am F G C F G Am G F Am G F

Oh, abCrasive and unbearable, a half-Fstep from hysterical

You stopped wGaiting for the miracle and started praying for the end

Oh, you were nevAmer less than charitable

But I can think Gof nothing so terrible

As to no longer Fbe your lover and oGnly be your friend

Now CI could never navigate your bFody's complex narratives

That whiGch lived and died and lies in stains

And still suffered its imperatives

And anyway, I waAms never that interested Gin your heart and soul F

I just wanted toAm see you and makGe love on parolFe
