[D] Uneasy lies the head, [F#m]
unfaithful is the heart, [D] ungrateful and unlucky [F#m] and untrue.
[D] And no one saw me come, [F#m] and no one saw me go, [D] only the black [F#m] birds and you.
Come harvest in the cane [D] fields, the sky turns black with smoke.
[G] So I took our father's gun [D] and a heavy piece of rope.
[F#m] And I left you lying there like [D] a rotten fruit upon the ground.
[G] And I lit a torch and I burned the [F#] whole thing down.

[F#m] Our father was a farmer, [D] he planted fields of cane.
[G] He planted seeds of evil [D] and we harvested the shame.
Oh and I'm the last one standing, [D] there's no one left to tell.
And when [G] it's my time, I'll [D] see you both [F#] in hell.
[D] Uneasy lies the head, [F#m]
unfaithful is the heart, ungrateful and [E] unlucky and [F#m]
untrue.
[D] And no one saw me come, [F#m] and no one saw me go, [D] only [E] the black birds [F#m] and you.
