VERSE:

[A]After that [D]confrontation, [A] you left me [C]wringing [D]my cold hands[A]

We shared some [D]information, we [G]might not recover from[D]

[A]And i watch your [D]convictions, [A] melt like [C]ice cubes [D]in an ocean[A]

You were so [D]poorly cast as a [E]malcontent

CHORUS:

[G]You've got them [D]all on your side[C]

That just makes more for doubt to [D]slaughter[G]

I never [D]knew he thought that[C]

I heard you say falling out of [D]the van[G]

Don't ask for [D]his opinion; [C] they ought to drown him in[D] holy wat[G]er

Will you reme[D]mber my reply, when your h[E]igh horse dies?

VERSE 2 (VERSE CHORDS)
We'd like to go the distance
But not a one of us is going to you
See no one is wise enough to turn the ancient boat around
These are the muddy waters I am swimming in
To make a living were I to drown in them
It should come as no surprise
