Chorus:
He told me I belong in a churchyard
He told me I could walk away but I wouldn't get far
Tell me, how do people know what is hurt,
what is love?
He told me I belong in a churchyard

F#m           E
Words pointy like arrows
B
Wounds no one can see
F#m                E
He closed all the windows
B
As his anger broke free
F#m           E
I will not remember
B
You as somebody nice
F#m                E           B
Please will you remember me and cry

Chorus:
   F#m          E               B
He told me I belong in a churchyard
   F#m                     E                  B
He told I could walk away but I wouldn’t get far
F#m                         E                    B
Tell me other people know what is hurt, what is love
   F#m          E               B
He told me I belong in a churchyard

Hate followed him gently, black seeds in his heart
Roots tearing the love in him apart

Chorus:
He told me I belong in a churchyard
(He-re-he-ro-he-re-hu-ma-he-re-he-ro-he-re)
He told me I could walk away but I wouldn't get far
(He-re-he-ro-he-re-hu-ma-he-re-he-ro-he-re)
Tell me, how do people know what is hurt,
what is love?
(He-re-he-ro-he-re-hu-ma-he-re-he-ro-he-re)
He told me I belong in a churchyard
(He-re-he-ro-he-re-hu-ma-he-re-he-ro-he-re)
