Intro: , first plucking the root note (5th string), and then strum the rest of the chord. It becomes clear when you listen to Josh do it on the album.

Am F C
Romero got married on the Fifth of July,

G
In our Lady of Immaculate Dawn.

Am F C
He could've got married in the revival man's tent,

G Am
There ain't no revivin' what's gone.

F C
Slipped like a shadow from the family he made,

G
in a little white house by the woods

Am F C
Dropped the kids at the mission with a rose for the virgin,

G Am
she knew he was gone for good.

C G
Its a long way to heaven, its closer to Harrisburg,

F C G
But that's still a long way from the place where we are.

Am F C
And if evil exists, its a pair of train tracks,

G Am
and the devil's a railroad car.

F C
Could have stayed somewhere but the train tracks kept going

G
And it seems like they always left soon

Am F C
and the wolves that he ran with they moaned low and painful

G Am
sang sad misereres to the moon

F C
Rose at the altar withered and wilted

G
Romero sank into a dream

Am F C
He didn't make Heaven, he didn't make Harrisburg

G Am
He died in a hole in between

F C
Some say that man is the root of all evil

G
Others say God's a drunkard for pain

Am F C
Me I believe that the Garden of Eden

G Am
Was burned to make way for a train, for a train.
