Verse:
[Dm]Wicked words embrace the darkness
[C]For reasons too cr[G]uel
They h[Dm]ide in the throats of cowards who wait
In the sh[C]adows with knives for f[G]ools
Pre-Chorus:
[Bb]Love waved a white flag
[Gm]Fear ran her through
[Bb]What could I do?
Chorus:
[Dm]I washed my robe in the r[Bb]iver
[Gm]I washed my hands in the r[Bb]ain
[Dm]I washed my robe in the r[Bb]iver
[Bb]I cursed the crime and the st[C]ain
