G [Verse] G Come yonder old stranger the tooth and the dagger G You stagger and then you are saved G Grow fonder the manger in truth and in danger G Of forgetting mistakes that you've made C Eyes like mine blinking and endlessly drinking C Letting the warlords inside G Fall in like mice into fires of ice G In death we find places to hide [Chorus] D All the old heroes are like C G Children to me now D As I come to burn your shame away C G Without knowing exactly how [Verse] G All the old heroes young babies without mothers G Left to die on apocalyptic streets G And where are these words from who spoke them before G Coming down like flashes of heat C I'm never frightened for death I still welcome C And death I have seen you before G I gave you my keys, my windows, my creeds G But soon I will give you much more [Chorus] D All the old heroes are like C G Children to me now D As I come to burn your shame away C G Without knowing exactly how [Verse] G Love is a fix a suicide wrist G Blood with an unending flow G To purify lands soak in the sands G Of places that we'll never go C Jesus come calling we'll be here and falling C Praying for your hand to show G Catch us in mercy drink us when thirsty G Each of us falling like snow [Chorus] D All the old heroes are like C G Children to me now D As I come to burn your shame away C G Without knowing exactly how [Verse] G Each one a cathedral the last junkie needle G Stained glass from blood that is old G And in that cathedral with the angels of nighttime G Paned in the window so cold C They see through your victims your painful musicians C Playing the saddest of songs G Nobody singing just a ghost without dreaming G A voice that could right all the wrongs [Chorus] D All the old heroes are like C G Children to me now D As I come to burn your shame away C G Without knowing exactly how [Verse] G Goodbye sweet diamond the sky in the north wind G Is falling on lepers and snakes G Hello young mercy both blessed and thirsty G For solutions to so many mistakes C Without your lover your tired wonder The south rain threatens to pour G On skulls like crashing in sunlight basking G Ignoring the strongest of calls G You cannot save them without their consent G Your voice of mercy to them I have sent G You spoke through me you a good man G Grew up to listen and give me your hand C Your voice of mercy so strong and so true C It comes out in cascades without residue C Of darkness or lies or doubt or untrue/untruth C It's pure like the wind the rain and the youth [Chorus] D All the old heroes are like C G Children to me now D As I come to burn your shame away C G Without knowing exactly how
