[Intro]
Eb   F   Gm   F
 
 
[Verse 1]
    Eb
She bargains with the world
   F              Gm                 F
So everything she wants will come to her
        Eb
With no greed inside her mind
    F              Gm            F
She knows what she deserves
   Eb
We fell from sky with grace
    F             Gm               F
And landed in her soft and warm embrace
    Eb
She gave her love, her gift of life
   F                  Gm
So we could live with her
 
 
[Chorus]
               F         Eb
That is why we live like heathens
                  F        Gm
Stealing from the trees of Eden
               F      Eb
Living in the arms of freedom
                  F        Gm
And everything we touch is evil
F               D        Eb        F   Gm
That is why we live like heathens
 
 
[Verse 2]
     Eb
The stone, the dirt, the dust
    F           Gm
The unforgiving promise made to us
  F              Eb
Unworthy of your light, your god, your touch
       F            Gm
We’re guided by the lust
   Eb
We cry the fallen names
   F                 Gm                F
We cry for those who burn beneath the flames
         Eb
We stand beside the good and brave
    F            Gm
The broken and enslaved
 
 
[Chorus]
               F         Eb
That is why we live like heathens
                  F        Gm
Stealing from the trees of Eden
               F      Eb
Living in the arms of freedom
                  F        Gm
And everything we touch is evil
F               D        Eb
That is why we live like heathens
 
F   Gm   F   Eb   F   Gm   F
 
 
[Bridge]
Gm             Dm    Ebm    F
Everything you touch will be hers
  Gm             Dm    Ebm       F       Gm    F   Dm   Eb
A mother with no heart will give love
                 Gm                 F        Dm       Eb
Her love is yours, but only if you give your heart to her
 
Gm  Eb  F  Gm
 
[Chorus]
               F         Eb
That is why we live like heathens
                  F        Gm
Stealing from the trees of Eden
              F       Eb
Living in the arms of freedom
                  F        Gm
And everything we touch is evil
F              D         Eb        F    Gm
That is why we live like heathens
F              D         Eb        F    Gm
That is why we live like heathens
F              D         Eb
That is why we live like heathens
