lyrics

Tragedies We Tell
Words and Music by Rev. Chad Wells

Verse 1:
I came up with a cursed crew
Escaped outta high school in 92
And by results of a misspent youth
I picked up the needle and learned tattoo

Verse 2:
I was headed for an early grave
Set to self destruct like a tidal wave
And by results of a pretty girlʼs face
I burnt those bridges and I left that place

Pre-Chorus 1:
And all my gang is long dead and gone
And the ones that arenʼt all wish they were...

Chorus:
I hope you werenʼt expecting heaven
I know you know that all the bad boys go to hell Wish we could talk about the weather
Instead of all of these tragedies we tell

Verse 3:
Now that the past is so far away
I often sit and think about those glory days
Broken glass and scars so deep
Iʼll pour a little out where the dead boys sleep

(Pre-Chorus 2)
And all my gang is long dead and gone
And the ones that arenʼt — I wish they were...

Chorus:
I hope you werenʼt expecting heaven
I know you know that all the dead boys go to hell Wish we could talk about the weather
Instead of all of these tragedies we tell
