[Gm]
[Gm]
Black, red, red sky, and a belly all full of fire.
Why, I ask, why?
I don't know.
I grow so tired of the battle of wrong and right,
that's waged inside [A] every time you speak [Gm] your mind.
But the same damn kind, don't you know?
[Am] [Gm] The devil's eyes and the daggy tongue,
the sky above is where the sound,
the fatal words like fire flung.
When I carry this pillow, I grow so tired
of the battle of wrong and right,
that's waged inside [A] every time you speak your [D] mind.
But the same [F#] damn [Gm] kind, don't you know?
We all walk back to the hill where the [A] gallows are swaying
still, [Gm] still clinched tight around the necks
of 10 [A] million ghosts.
[A#] They whisper, [A] don't [Gm] forget, but [D] don't
forget to keep [A] moving on.
[Dm] But the same damn kind, [Gm] don't you know?
