As Cities Burn Pirate Blues Lyrics

I'm not to fond of the other version on here so here's a tab of how I like to play this song
CAPO: 6th Fret
Not sure what the chord names are so I'll just call them by what they would be if they
were played without a capo
CHORDS:
Before you, your mom and dad used to smoke in the Texas sun
They were young once too
And your mom she found Jesus
While your old man stepped out and drew up his veins
Bridge:
It's quiet in the house of the old
You can hear through grinding teeth, clocks taking their toll
Cause time has a mind of its own
Like our sun spinning around
It wont slow for you now
Oh I wanna catch in a song
Notes I don't hear yet
But I will when I'm gone
I've been pouring my heart up
Up through the floor boards
But you don't live here no more
Oh you wanna catch in a lens
Color your green eyes don't see just yet
Bridge:
The horse men
They all blow out their torches
I can see you still shining out
But you sleep in a bed for a giant
While you wait for your love to come home
But you don't know, she's not coming back
Oh I wanna find out I'm wrong
And every road leads us home
Oh but I'll never know, 'cause I keep my eyes closed
And only go where I've been before
