Ave Maria

Am7 G C/G*


[Verse 1]
           Am7*           G*
Didn't give up at 14 when everybody said
       C/G*                     Fmaj7*
It was just like the dream they had
     Am7*                 G*
See, this is how it goes, in in-and-out flows
       C/G*               Fmaj7*
There's no sun that ever lasts
Am7*                G*
Now, let's wake up, see what you want
C/G*             Fmaj7*
Everyone already has
       Am7*                G*
Didn't give up at 18 when everybody said
       C/G*
It was just like the dream they, they had


[Bridge]

Am7 G C/G Fmaj7

[Pre-Chorus]
       Am7*           G*
Waking up in the sun, sandpaper tongue
C/G*                 Fmaj7*
Red stripe across my back
Am7*               G*
Hearing your voice sing like a choir
C/G*
"What am I looking at?"

[Chorus]

Am7 G   C/G   Fmaj7
A-  ve  Mari- a
Am7               G        C/G   Fmaj7
   Last time that I try to catch you
               Am7                       G
I thought if I looked nice, then I would feel nice
                  C/G                     Fmaj7
And you would see me right, you would see me right
              Am7               G
But it was an old lie, it was a cold lie
         C/G           Fmaj7*    Am7
It was a long night, a long night

[Verse 2]
               Am7*               G*
I don't wear a coat on cold days, train to Rahway
C/G*             Fmaj7*
Running down Adderall
            Am7*                  G*
Writing the line of my life, finally gonna go right
          C/G*       Fmaj7*
And I can justify it all
Am7*                G*
Now let's wake up, because it's never enough
       C/G*                 Fmaj7*
You're always gonna hear me wrong
              Am7*             G*
Wouldn't give up at 18, 'cause everybody said
       C/G*              Fmaj7*
It was just like a dream they had

       Am7*           G*
Waking up in the sun, sandpaper tongue
C/G*                 Fmaj7*
Red stripe across my back
Am7*               G*
Hearing your voice sing like a choir
C/G*
"What am I looking at?"

   Last time that I try to catch you
               Am7                       G
I thought if I looked nice, then I would feel nice

And you would see me right, you would see me right

But it was an old lie, it was a cold lie
         C/G           Fmaj7*    Am7
It was a long night, a long night

[Bridge]
(Not quite single strum but almost)
    Am7            G       C/G Fmaj7
I'm throwing out a Hail Mary
     Am7          G            C/G       Fmaj7
It's gotta get to you, time is ticking away
    Am7            G       C/G Fmaj7
I'm throwing out a Hail Mary
     Am7          G            C/G       Fmaj7

Waking up in the sun, sandpaper tongue

Red stripe across my back
Am7*               G*
Hearing your voice sing like a choir

"What am I looking at?"
