[Intro]
A F#m D
A F#m D
 
[Verse 1]
A
Your face looks so sweet, even in the wars
F#m D
You took the rap for me, but I fell on my own sword
A
And now the sordid details, are all over page 4
F#m D
Honey, we made the news and that's all we did this for
A
We drove for centuries without a sound or fuss
F#m D
State penitentiaries weren't made for souls like us
A
There will be blood, but you will be loved
F#m D
The world will know, but it's only us
 
[Chorus]
A F#m
When I lay me down
D A
I pray we, keep each day
F#m D
Please stay with me
 
[Post-Chorus]
A
 
[Verse 2]
A
You painted the town red, now everyone in the town's dead
F#m
You and I win again
D
best friends 'til our last breath
A
Live by the gun, die by the gun, live by the sea, live while we're young
F#m
Take from the rich, give to the poor,
D
run to the hills, run from the law
A
Ride shotgun with our crossbow, head out North where the Sun grows
F#m
Start fresh where they don't know
D
the things we did, the stick-up kids
A
We laughed, we cried, we lived, we died
F#m D
We came, we saw We conquered them all
 
[Chorus]
A F#m
When I lay me down
D A
I pray we, keep each day
F#m D
Please stay with me
 
[Verse 3]
A
Don't listen to what they say Don't take the medication
F#m
They never loved us anyway
D
Never liked our generation
A
They will try and keep you But you're still mine
F#m
And I love you, and you're strong dear
D
And we're fine
A
So, remember when the time comes when it's over and it's all done
F#m
Meet me in the North,
D
by the edge of the Sun
 
[Chorus]
A F#m
When I lay me down
D A
I pray we, keep each day
F#m D
Please stay with me
 
[Outro]
A F#m D
