[Verse]
             G
We were born to sin
C             G
We were born to sin
     Am              Em
We don't think we're special sir
     D        C
We know everybody is
                G
We've built too many walls
       C                G
Yeah, we've built too many walls
Am           Em
And now we gotta run
   D                     C
A giant fist is out to crush us

[Interlude]
G   C
G   Am
Em  D

[Verse]
             G
We run in the dark
   C         G
We run in the dark
    Am           Em
We don't carry dead weight long
    D           C
We send them along to heaven
            G
I carry my baby
  C         G
I carry my baby
   Am          Em
Her eyes can barely see
    D          C
Her mouth can barely breathe

[Chorus]
                D
I can see she's afraid
                 Am
She could see the danger
         G
We don't wanna die or apologize
         D            Am
For our dirty God, our dirty bodies

[Verse]
                   G
Now, I stick to the ground
  C            G
I stick to the ground
             Am            Em
I won't look twice for the dead walls
    D                C
I don't want a white pillar of salt
            G
I carry my baby
  C         G
I carry my baby
   Am          Em
Her eyes can barely see
    D          C
Her mouth can barely breathe

[Chorus]
                 D
I can see she's afraid
                 Am
That's why we're escaping
            G
So we won't have to die, we won't have to deny
      D           Am
Our dirty God, our dirty bodies
