Intro: Am G C F C E7 Am Dm G C F Bb E7 Am

(Verse I)
Am G C F

They're all throwing stones at the back of my home
C E7 Am
kicking the dirt in the air
Dm G C F
Well I left to think while they're thinking I'm stoned
Bb E7 Am
Well I had no cause to be there

Am G C F
And out of this town while I had something left
C E7 Am
bury the fear in my head
Dm G C F
Well it's all just the same cause the city's just as bare
Bb E7 Am
It's full of people like me


(Chorus)
G G7 C
We've all run away
G G7 C
Everyone wants but nobody needs
G G7 C
Silver and gold
F E7 F G
Well everyone wants, but nobody needs


[Interlude (Shorter)]
Am G C F C E7 Am


(Verse II)
Am G C F
Well I ran to the woods and I preached to the birds
C E7 Am
St. Francis talking to me
Dm G C F
Well they said I'd find love in a pain I'd endure
Bb E7 Am
If I would just listen to him

Am G C F
With my ear to the ground and my heart full of lead
C E7 Am
Well I quietly listened to him teach
Dm G C F
But with tears in his eyes, he just looked straight through me
Bb E7 Am
I awkwardly waited for speech


(Chorus)
G G7 C
We've all run away
G G7 C
Everyone wants but nobody needs
G E7 Am
Silver and gold
F E7 F G
Everyone wants, but nobody needs


[Interlude w/ changed piano part]
Am G C F C E7 Am Dm G C F Bb E7 Am


Am G C F
Once I was sure that this love was the truth
C E7 Am
Well I quickly spit in his face
Dm G C F
I returned to my home, friends and I, we threw stones
Bb E7 Am
Bragging that we knew the way


[hummed chorus 1x until the end]
Am G C F C E7 Am Dm G C F Bb E7 Am
