G                                   Gsus4
Heidi there are things you couldn't possibly know
       C                 G
It's a race of angels, a line in the snow

  G                    Gsus4
A flame in the dark, a prayer to St Jude:
         C                                     G
He's the patron saint of nothingness - there's nothing he can do


PRE-CHORUS1:
Chords:
G  320033 or 355433    C  x32010 or x35553
D  xx0232 or x57775    Am x02210 or 577555

          G   D     C
'Cos it's out of my hands,
           G             D      C
He's not a god, no, he's only a man
        Am           D       Am              D
So, I'm telling everybody, I will not come undone
    Am         D         Am              D
But being so superior is just no fucking fun, no...


CHORUS:
Chords:
F  x8 10 10 10 8 or 133211 or x33211    G7 353433

F            C                G
  If I had a gun, I think I'm able
F            C                     G
  If I had a gun, I'd know what to do
F            C               G           G7
  If I had a gun, I would be perfectly unstable
    G              G7                   C
But nothing really changes then, that's true

    Am                                D
Oh, Heidi, I am many things but thank God I'm not like you

G     320033 or 355433
Gsus4 3x0013 or 355533
C     x32010 or x35553

       G                                 Gsus4
'Cause kids of today, they think they're so    damned profound.
              C                                    G
You give them one slim book of Kerouac and they're ready to expound

       G                    Gsus4
On the way of the world, on what makes things art.
              C                        G
They couldn't find their way around Kentucky or the map of a human heart

D  xx0232 or x57775    Am x02210 or 577555

        G   D     C
So it's out of my hands,
          G                D          C
I'm not a god, 'cos I will never be a man
        Am           D          Am                  D
So, I'm telling everybody, I've learned to fill the hole
    Am              D              Am             D
I'm baking cakes on Sunday for the tea-time of my soul

  Do I appear clever? Oh, Heidi, I'm not you
G            C          F
Maybe that's strange to you
G     C        F
Maybe I'm just strange
