The House That Heaven Built

Chords
pin

F C                       F C
When the soul of the city
                F C
Was laid to rest
                        F C
And the nights forgotten
                 Am
And left for dead

Am          F             C  F 
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh (x2)

C                     F C         
I happened on a house
                      F C
Built of living light
                      F C
Where everything evil
                    Am
Disappears and dies

Am          F             C  F
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh (x2)

F                                
When they love you, and they will
C           Am         G            F
Tell 'em all they'll love in my shadow
F
And if they try to slow you down
C           Am         G            F
Tell 'em all to go to hell

C                   F C
I settled in slowly
                                 F C
To this house that you call home
                    F C
To blood and breath
                     Am
Fear, flesh and bone

Am          F             C  F
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh (x2)

C                  F C
Rush of our bodies
C                        F C
In the heat of the night
C                      F C
All day the day after
                 Am
Red in the skies

Am          F             C  F
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh (x2)


F                                
When they love you, and they will
C           Am         G            F
Tell 'em all they'll love in my shadow
F
And if they try to slow you down
C           Am         G            F
Tell 'em all to go to hell

C                    F C
It's a lifeless life
C                             F C
With no fixed address to give
C                                      F C
But you're not mine to die for anymore
C              F C
So I must live

C                F C
Born of a bottle
C                  F C
From heaven's hand
C                F C
And now you know
C             Am
And here I am

Am          F             C  F
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh oh oh, oh (x2)

F                                
When they love you, and they will
C           Am         G            F
Tell 'em all they'll love in my shadow
F
And if they try to slow you down
C           Am         G            F
Tell 'em all to go to hell


F                                
When they love you, and they will
C           Am         G            F
Tell 'em all they'll love in my shadow
F
And if they try to slow you down
C           Am         G            F
Tell 'em all to go to hell
