We Were Made Out Of Lightning

• Dm

Okay, I'm more or less positive that these are the proper chords. All except the barred 
Am in the bridge. Also, he slides all the way up to the 8th fret to play C and 
everything is softly palm muted.

Intro - Am, E, F then G, all held for two counts and if you fiddle around with your 
pinky, I'm sure you'll figure out the hammer ons.

Dm      Am           E x2
We were made out of lightning;
  F                          C      E x2
a suffering pain, you should see by now.
Dm      Am                E x2
We were burned down like Catholic
  F                    C  E x2
on a winter road never so cold.

Dm    Am             E x2
And I abandoned my family
            F                C       E x2
in a fit of rage, in a fit of want for you.
                   F
There's nothing else to do
  B                   E x2
when you're confused, when you're confused.

(Play the intro)

Dm                      Am               E x2
You're cattle and you're cat-like, I am scared.
          F                     C                 E x2
Your bald tongue and your right hand and your last peace.
Dm                      Am           E x2
And I, I never really knew who'd you see,
        F     C          E x2
it's okay, it's okay, it's okay.

C                     Am barred
Now I, I keep it inside of me
                             F      G
Hoping you would one day let me go
   C
It's the end,
                Am barred
it's nothin' I ended.
                                     F
So grab your arms and dive into the sun,
         G
to the sun.

(It's same as the 1st verse)
I am not your savior,
I'm just your friend keeping you alive.
And hindsight proves that you're haunted;
the same way you speak all the time.
