How Does The Grass Grow

• A

Intro:  A G# G F# F  

Bb                    G#         
Theres a graveyard by the station 
        F# 
Where the girls wear nylon skirts and 
Sandals from Hungary 
Bb 
The boys ride their Riga 1s 
G# 
Upon the little hill 
F# 
Such sadness and grief 
The trees die standing 
Bb 
Thats where we made our trysts 
      G# 
And struggled with our guns 
F# 
Would you still love me 
If the clocks could go backwards 
Bb 
The girls would fill with blood and 
G# 
The grass would be green again 
F# 
Remember the dead 
They were so great 
Some of them 

Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya 
Ya ya ya ya ya ya 
How does the grass grow 
Blood blood blood 
Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya 
Ya ya ya ya ya ya 
Where do the boys lie 
Mud mud mud 
How does the grass grow 
Blood blood blood 


Solo:  Bb  G#  F#   


Bb 
But I lived a blind life 
G# 
A white face in prison 
F# 
But you made a life out of nothing 
Now I ride my black horse 
Bb 
I miss you more 
G# 
Than youll ever ever know 
F# 
Waiting with my red eyes 
And my stone heart 

Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya 
Ya ya ya ya ya ya 
How does the grass grow 
Blood blood blood 
Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya 
Ya ya ya ya ya ya 
Where do the boys lie 
Mud mud mud 
How does the grass grow 
Blood blood blood 


E               G 
I gaze in defeat 
D 
At the stars in the night 
E                    G          D 
The light in my life burnt away 
G#            G    
There will be no tomorrow 
F#            F 
Then you sigh in your sleep 
A            E              D 
And meaning returns with the day 

Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya 
Ya ya ya ya ya ya 
Where do the boys lie 
Mud mud mud 
How does the grass grow 
Blood blood blood 

Solo Chords:
