Innocence Maintained

  The tab remains the same throughout the entire song.  To figure out her 
plucking pattern and the rest of the lyrics, listen to the tape-it's 
fairly easy.  Enjoy! 
 
           D 
Ophelia drowned in the water 
           D 
Crushed by her own weight 
              C 
Hitler loved the blue eyed boys 
           C 
and it drove him to hate 
                     D 
Birds always grow silent before the night descends 
      D                                              G 
Cause nature has a funny way of breaking what does not bend 
 
I saw a man with a hole he could not fill 
He couldn't make the world work for him  
and didn't work and still (??) 
There was a hole inside his soul           (same as verse 1) 
that whiskey could not still 
So he found himself a girl to love 
while babies choked in the windowsill 
 
        D            C 
We've made houses for hatred 
       G 
It's time we make a place where 
   D        C            G 
People's souls may be seen and made safe 
    D            C             G 
be careful with each other these fragile flames 
  D         C                    D       C      G 
Innocence can't be lost it just needs to be maintained
