Verse: 1 Dm C F Thumbs out on a desert road I am told Am Leads to nowhere Dm C Any shade is as good as the next F Am If your shadow doesn't go there Em F Week seven: Did you really assume Am G I'd find some solace from the letter in your room? Em F Next life, could you kindly refain Am G From throwing yourself at the mercy of a train? Chorus 1 Am Dm G Silence all, nobody breathe C F How in the world could you just leave? A# You promised you would F Silence that evil with good Am Dm G Hear me out, I have the floor C F I'll give you my tears, I'll listen more A# You promised you would F Dm C F Am Dm C F Am Dm Overcome evil with good verse 2 Dm C F Maybe this world is a barren place for a soul Am Prone to get lost Dm C But heaven still hounds from the smallest sounds F Am To the cries of the storm-tossed Em F Week nine: I am writing in the sand Am G Any little clue that could help me understand Em F Every whispered secret, every muffled sigh Am G Every half-truth that was added to a lie Chorus 2 Am Dm G Silence all, nobody move C F I've got to know now what you hoped to prove A# You promised you would F Silence that evil with good Am Dm G Shame feeds guilt, guilt needs release C You took it to God F You made your peace A# And swore that you would F Overcome evil with good Am F C F G Dm C Em Dm G verse 3 Em F Every old demon playing back the crime Am G If they needed blood, I'd have gladly given mine Em F A Child of the Kingdom; still an invalid Am Forgive her, please Father G She don't know what she did Chorus 3 Am Dm G Silence all, now go to sleep C F The water's free, the well is deep A# How can we return F That which we never could earn? Am Dm G God, I long to see her face C We haven't a hope F Beyond Your grace A# I know that You will F Overcome evil Dm For good
