This is gonna be white crosses and
Once you tell a little little bit about what it's about and why it's a title track and well that I wrote the song living
In st.
Augustine, Florida
So that the majority of the song is just about all the song is about what you know
I saw there one day and my experiences around the town around the corner from the house.
I was living in
There was a church on the church lawn
4,000 white crosses all about a foot high off the ground called the Cemetery of the Innocents one cross
Represent every abortion that happens [G] in America every day.
I [Bb] would daily kind of fantasize about smashing all [Ab] those crosses into the ground
Sometimes you know an act of destruction like that can be an incredibly gratifying [B] experience really cathartic
You know smashing something you feel like ah, that was great afterwards
And for me writing these songs playing these songs I get that same feeling so I thought it was a good album title _ _

_ _ _ [F] _ _ It's gonna [G] kill my [C] unsettled stomach _ _ _
_ _ Street kids collect their change in a tall channel on the sidewalk the cheap yellow
The hair is [F] tangled their minds are [G] baffled and they laugh up [C] in there
Brother I _ _ _

_ Head [F] north on St.
Marco [Dm] Avenue
_ White [G] crosses on the church [C] lawn I
[F] Wanna smash them [C] all?
I [F] wanna smash them [C] all _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Ponytails swinging back and forth behind these blonde college girls out for a jog
[F] St.
Augustine [G] shine your light down on [C] me _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Popping some of the 90s that go out of Torsville bars.
I met with arms crossed under
[F] Dirty looks I [G] am treated like a charming [C] face _ _ _ _
I
[Dm] _ _ Make [G] my way back home [C] you
Head north [F] on St.
Marco [Dm] Avenue
