[Chorus 1]
A E
If life lives on forever like you kind of hope it would
F#m D Dm
Take the bottom from the barrel, take the grain and leave the good
A E
And we'll sing through every chorus as if we can stave off death
D A E
But it's holy holy hopeless I guess
[Verse 1]
A G
I'm so tired of this old religion
C D A
In possession of a soul that can't be saved
E F#m Bm
And can you feel the love exude the room these days?
D E
We're in the church of no commandments and we can't be swayed
[Chorus 2]
A E
If life lives on forever like you kind of hope it would
F#m D E
Take the bottom from the barrel, take the grain and leave the good

And we'll sing through every chorus as if we can stave off death

But it's holy holy hopeless I guess
[Verse 2]

When the lights dim low to guide us home
A Bm
Away from the lives that we're in

We're still mad enough to whistle at the wind.
B7 Dm
And when the lights dim low to guide us home
A E
Away from the lives that we're in
F C Dsus4 D
We're still mad enough to whistle at the wind
A

C#m E
Take the bottom from the barrel, take the grain and leave the good

It's holy holy hopeless
