I don t really know the chords in the chorus, but this works for me:
CAPO 4TH FRET
Milk thistle, milk thistle,
Let me down slow,
Help me down slow,
I ve been hurryin on,
I m not scared of nothin ,
And I ll go pound for pound,
I keep death on my mind,
Like a heavy crown.
If I go to heaven,
I ll be bored as hell,
Like a little baby,
At the bottom of a well.
Fair child, fair child,
How are you man?
Did you fix that storefront?
Did you start that band?
Don t be scared of nothin ,
You go pound for pound,
You ll bring peace to midnight,
Like a spotted owl.
I ll be rootin for you,
Like my favorite team,
If somebody sweats you,
You just point em out to me.
All the sights and sounds,
D7 (This one I m not sure about)
This little world s too crowded now,
And there s only one way out.
An elevator ride,
Through the tunnel towards the light,
And I know where bound,
Keep going up and down,
Up and down.
Newspaper, newspaper
Can t take no more,
You re here every morning,
Waitin at my door.
And I m just tryin to kiss you,
And you stab my eyes,
Make me blue forever,
Like an Allen sky.
And I m not pretending,
That it s all okay,
Just let me have my coffee,
Before you take away the day.
Lazarus, Lazarus,
Why all the tears?
Did your faithful chauffer just disappear?
What a lonesome feeling,
To be just waitin round,
Like some washed up actress,
In a Tinseltown.
But for the record,
I d come pick you up,
We ll head for the ocean,
Just say when you ve had enogh.
All the light and sound,
This little world s too fragile now,
And there s only one way out.
If you let me slide,
I ll do my best to make things right,
And I know where bound,
Keep going up and down,
Up and down.
Milk thistle, milk thistle,
Let me down slow,
Just help me down slow,
I ve been carrying on.
I was poised for greatness,
I was down and out
I keep death at my heels
Like a basset hound
If i go to heaven,
I ll be bored as hell,
Like a crying baby at the bottom of a well.
