Deliver Me Lyrics & Chords By Krista Detor

I told you so – who didn’t see it coming?
Yeah, we all saw it coming 5 miles down the road – 5 miles down

Some kinda madness there in your coffee cup.
Why do you drink it up and swallow sorrow down til you drown?

Deliver me from fools and righteousness and movie love
That promises someday to rise above
The thing it never could be worthy of

And revelation comes in packages that may never arrive
He loves you but he has to say goodbye
And that, my love has always been a lie ~ always a lie

Yeah, I told you so – and all the while you knew it
You knew it down inside. And still you sat out on the stoop and cried -
What a sorry sight

Deliver me from fools and wickedness and shiny things,
From laughing at her when Suzanna sings
About the banjo boys who promise wedding rings

Yeah, I told you so, I told you so – but what good is the story?
No hope came with the glory. No line outside my door –
Five cents advice and more. Five cents advice...

Deliver me from fools and holiness and Hollywood
A mouth full of soap might do a world of good
Oh, the things I’ve said that no one ever should
Deliver me from all this victory, all this victory
