Blasphemous Rumours

(verse 1 and 2)

F#m
Girl of sixteen whole life ahead of her,
Slashed her wrists, bored with life.
Didn't succeed, thank the lord,

Bm        C#      F#m
For small mercies.

F#m
Fighting back the tears, mother reads the note again,
Sixteen candles burn in her mind.
She takes the blame, it's always the same,
     Bm                             F#m
She goes down on her knees and prays.

(chorus)

   D                      A/C#
I don't want to start any blasphemous rumours, but i
 Bm7                    D
Think that god's got a sick sense of humour, and
 Esus4                          D
When i die, i expect to find him laughing.

(end chorus)

(verses 3 and 4 same as 1 and 2. words below.)

Girl of eighteen, fell in love with everything,
Found new life in jesus christ.
Hit by a car, ended up
On a life support machine.

Summer's day, as she passed away,
Birds were singing in the summer sky.
Then came the rain, and once again,
A tear fell from her mother's eye.

(chorus over and over again until fade)
