HANDS LIKE HOUSES COVER - TORN
Capo 4.
[Verse 1]
C Em
I thought I saw a man brought to life
F
He was warm, he came around like he was dignified
He showed me what it was to cry
C Em
Well you couldn't be that man I adored
You don't seem to know
F
Don't seem to care what your heart is for
But I don't know him anymore
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Am
There's nothing where he used to lie
G
My conversation has run dry
Em
That's what's going on
G
Nothing's fine
C
I'm torn
[Chorus 1]
(C) G Am
I'm all out of faith, this is how I feel
F C
I'm cold and I am shamed, lying naked on the floor
G Am
Illusion never changed, into something real
F C
I'm wide awake and I can see, the perfect sky is torn
G Am (G) F
You're a little late, I'm already torn
[Verse 2]
C Em
So I guess the fortune teller's right
F
I should have seen just what was there and not some holy light
But you crawl beneath my veins and now
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Am
I don't care, I have no luck
G
I don't miss it all that much
Em
There's just so many things
G
That I can't touch
C
I'm torn
[Chorus 2]
(C) G Am
I'm all out of faith, this is how I feel
F C
I'm cold and I am shamed, lying naked on the floor
G Am
Illusion never changed, into something real
F C
I'm wide awake and I can see, the perfect sky is torn
G Am (G) F
You're a little late, I'm already torn
[Bridge]

Nothing's right

[Chorus 3]

I'm all out of faith, this is how I feel
F C
I'm cold and I am shamed, lying naked on the floor
G Am
Illusion never changed, into something real
F C
I'm wide awake and I can see, the perfect sky is torn
G Am
I'm all out of faith, this is how I feel
F C
I'm cold and I am shamed, bound and broken on the floor
G Am (G) F
You're a little late, I'm already torn
[Outro]
