[Verse 1]
A E C A
Tourists on boat down Broadway
Dm
Cumberland keeps claiming bodies
A E C A Dm
All our best memories were bought and then turned into apartments
A E C A Dm
The club with all the hardcore shows now just a grayscale Domino's
A E C A Dm
The churches overflow each Sunday, greedy Sunday morning
A E C A
Dm A E C A
Giftshop in the lobby
Dm A E C A
Act like God ain't watching
Dm A E C A
Kill the soul, turn a profit
Dm
What lives on, Southern Gotham
[Chorus]
F Dm
I'm the one who still loves your ghost
Am E
I reanimate your bones with my belief
F Dm
I'm the one who still loves your ghost
Am E
I reanimate your bones 'cause I'm a true believer
A E C A Dm
[Verse 2]
A E C A Dm
They put up chain-link fences underneath the biggest bridges
A E C A Dm
They pose in Christmas cards with guns as big as all the children
A E C A Dm
They say that Jesus is the way but then they
A
gave him a white face
E C A Dm
So they don't have to pray to someone they deem lesser than them
A E C A
Dm A E C A
The South will not rise again
Dm A E C A
Til it's paid for every sin
Dm A E C A
Strange fruit, hard bargain
Dm
Till the roots, Southern Gotham
[Chorus]
F Dm
I'm the one who still loves your ghost
Am E
I reanimate your bones with my belief
F Dm
I'm the one who still loves your ghost
Am E
I reanimate your bones 'cause I'm a true believer
A E C A Dm
F Dm
I'm the one who still loves your ghost
Am E
I reanimate your bones with my belief
F Dm
I'm the one who still loves your ghost (Ah-ah)
Am E
I reanimate your bones 'cause I'm a true believer (Ah-ah-ah)
