Standard Tuning - Capo 2 (chords relative to capo)
Intro Part 1: C
Intro Part 2: C F Am G C F G
[C]Little did I know it t[F]hen
The p[Am]ictures on the heads of [G]pins
'B[C]e easier than livin[F]g is
[G]Easier to watch you die
[C]Lost what little luck was [F]left
It'[Am]s not enough to pay th[G]e rent
[C]Not enough to force re[F]pentance
[G]Not enough to make you pray
[F]And don't tel[G]l me 'bout[C] the sins[F] of man
[Am]I've felt the s[G]ting of God's rig[C]ht hand
I find him after school in bed
And don't know if he's drunk or dead
A slow but steady breath means
Live to wreck another day
It's terrible to cross my mind
That I should do him in this time
And I could find a better life
Become a burden on the state
You can't run when it's all you know
You'll just have to wait to go
(Guitar just plays C for the bridge)
And you can't hurt me 'cause I've been true
Your horrid life caught up to you
But I got bruises that you can't see
If there's a god, take him from me.
End on C
