Someone Purer

[Em]

[Em]I was gripped with a bit of fear
worried the [Em]one thing that I loved
back when [G]I was just a kid
might now [Am]never be enough
that the [C]body I was in
might [C]belong to someone else
Someone [Em]kinder, Someone surer, Someone innocent, young and beautiful
someone [C]purer, that's the one I know

[Em][C]

[Em]I was scratching at my skin hopin [Em]changes would begin
but what [G]laid beneath was blood
well of [Am]course what the hell was I thinking [C]of
won't you take me down to the [C]creek wash away our sins of sleep

[Em]I feel so tired as though I might
not wake at all on the other [C]side.... that's no way to go

[Em][C][Em]

[G]Oh my dear one
bathe me in your glow

[D]cut out my lonely heart
and bury it in the snow

[F]nothing really means nothing
is the saddest thing I know

[C]so deliver me from sin
and give me rock and roll

[G][D][F][C]

NOTE:
From here the rest of the song follows the same format. Hopefully you get the gist of it. ENJOY!

ADDITIONAL LYRICS:
And in the morning there'll be hope
and in the morning there'll be light
and if I sleep and dream up a system
a solution
to fend off perils of the night
come on in, I'll be born again
born again as someone else
Someone kinder
Someone surer
Someone beautiful
someone purer

and when I am you'll know
and when I am you'll know

Oh might one
the devil knows my name
will salvation come
and wash away my pain?
for I was once a kid
with a pure and innocent soul
so deliver me from sin
and give me rock and roll

Give me rock and roll
Give me rock and roll
a pure and innocent soul
and a pure and innocent soul

Give me rock and roll
Give me rock and roll
and a pure and innocent soul
and a pure and innocent soul
