WELCOME ME

(Amy Ray)

--------------------
[Actually in A; capo 2.]
[Each chord is one measure.  There are variations within the measures that
 I haven't noted here, mostly changing C and D to C(9) and D(9).]


(Am)        Am                 G
    Welcome me to the city of angels
      D                       C
Devil prophets still hold my hand
Am                                      G
  I walked your stillborn streets for hours
       D                        C(9)
Ethnic echoes spitting out their trials

                  G                                 D
They say that I'll, I'll be the first to praise the sun
                         C                           G
The first to praise the moon, the first to hold the lone coyote
                     D
The last to set it free

Welcome me to a haven given
It's well received into my open arms
I ran in my sleep to shaking tremors
I felt the splitting earth echoing in my ears

They said that I, I'll be the first to praise the sun
The first to praise the moon, the first to hold the lone coyote
The last to set it free

[Guitar solo, same chords as one verse and one chorus]

Welcome me to your city of angels
See, there's a devil monkey laying on our backs
Now tell me, where's the heart, where's the bullet for breaking?
Who's gonna give me a weapon, a pacifying weapon?

They said that I'll, I'll be the first to praise the sun
The first to praise the moon, the first to hold the lone coyote
The last to set it free, I said, I said welcome me
I'll be the first to praise the sun
The first to praise the moon, oh, the first to hold the lone coyote
                     D    C(9)    G.
The last to set it free
Welcome me to your city of angels
