Am
How can you say you love me,
     Dsus4                D   Dsus2
when you don't even love yourself
     F         Fsus2       C/E      C
You live your life like a jagged knife,
      G/D    D6     Am7
just waiting on the shelf

How can you live for tomorrow
When you curse the night and day
The minutes pass through the hour glass
As you let them slip away

Chorus:
         G           Dsus2/F#
Do you love me, white sister,
        Fsus2           G       Am7
do you love me when I play your game
         G              Dsus2/F#
Do you love me, white sister,
         F     D        C    Am7
do you love me, when I call your name

How can you touch the sorrow
With a leather gloved hand
When you summon the winds of anger
Just as fast as you can

You crucify an orphan
With the rainbow in your eyes
Then you send out invitations
And address them with his cries

Chorus

F          D/F#              G
I, I don't even know what's right,
E/G#   Am           F      D/F#         G
I can say that you put up some kind of fight
E/G#         F                  D/F#
 I've been branded, I've been stranded
       Gsus4                        G
I'm so thankful for what I've been handed,
              F  C/E  Dm7 C             Bm7-5
wish I could saaaaaaaaaaaaay that you're mine

Chorus:
Do you love me, white sister
Do you love me, when I play your game
Do you love me, white sister
Do you love me, when I call your name
