Chords for Dead Man Walking (feat. The Lacs)

_ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ [B] _
_ _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ [D] _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _
I'm _ _ just a [Em] good boy, yeah _
_ [E] _ _ I [Em] live life like a renegade drifter
Losing myself on the open road
Running from the pains of a sinner
Conceivable bandaid for a [E] broken soul
A devastated terror not to test me
A screaming fair game, but it wants the light
Now there ain't too much left of me
I got my days lowered [Em] down till I'm just a bad
Cause I don't care, I stand a-swinging at the bottom of a [E] hangman's rope
Maybe it's a sad plan, dreaming I'm a bad man's creed
But I can't stop believing there's [Em] hope, oh lord
Like a dead man walking back from the grave, if I'm alive where I'm born
[C] Everything I love is dead and gone
Every [D] night I sing this dead man song
Like [E] I'm held on a trigger, got a violent attraction
I'm alright where [Em] I belong
[C] In between heaven and being dead prone
[D] From leaving till I'm dead and gone
I'm a dead [E] man walking back from the grave
_ _ _ _ _ [Em] _ Yeah, _ [E] _ that's the [Em] long one
This life has kept me barely holding back
See the thread gripping [E] on my fingers, squeezing trigger till my fingers wear
A lot of folks, they let it judge and nudge them in the hay to here
If a prisoner don't get the shit, no common sense, and pain to deal
Name calling their pointy fingers and laying blame, it don't bother me
Long as y'all don't judge me and my family and my [C] property
My property, what do I see?
In the ground I'll probably [E] be, but I'm standing up and I'm raising hell
So won't you come and follow [Em] me?
I'm a cornered up, pissed off, cracker in a cage
[E] Get you one corn, missed call, take you to the grave
[C] I never take the mask [C] off and let you take it
[A] But the looking didn't last long, cause bitch I'm ugly
[E] Can't be in denial, I'll cut you to the bone
Now the cover's been blown, I'm supposed to be alone
[C] Like a hell bent trigger kill, I don't know where it goes
[D] But I keep singing the song and I'm stuck under a stone
[Em] Like a dead man walking back from the grave, cause I'm a ride with a bone
[C] Everything I love is dead and gone
Every [D] night I sing this dead man song
I got [E] hell on a trigger, got a file in a check
And I'm right where I [Em] belong
In [C] between heaven and Vietnam
So [D] from here until I'm dead and gone
I'm a dead [E] man walking, walking on
_ I'm [Em] a dead man walking, [E] _
I'm a dead man walking
_ _ _ [Em] I said I'm a dead man _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [E] Like a dead man walking back from the grave, cause I'm a ride with a bone
[C] Everything I love is dead and gone
Every [D] night I sing this dead man song
I [E] got hell on a trigger, got a file in a check
And I'm right where I [Em] belong
In [C] between heaven and Vietnam
So [D] from here until I'm dead and gone
[E] I'm _ a dead man walking, I'm [Em] a dead man walking _
I'm a dead man walking
_ I'm a dead man walking
I'm a dead man walking
I'm a dead man _ walking
I'm getting, I'm getting, [D] I'm getting, I'm getting, I'm getting, I'm [A] getting, I'm getting,
Doug [E] had a shot, and he [B] took it.
_ [Em] It was a flesh wound, but it'll heal, eventually.
[E] _ [G] In the end, it was [Em] comfort that brought me down.
I got comfortable.
[B] Comfortable was life.
Comfortable was how strong [Em] I thought I was.
But every man must fall, [D] eventually.
[Em] I did a lot of bad things.
Hurt a lot of people.
[Em]
I lost everything because of it.
Now I [A] walk this desert, my [Em] prison, my punishment.
_ _ But I'll find my way home, _
