[E]
Hustlers, whores, in loose galore, a [A] sinking city [E] stink.
[A] [E]
A bar of [B] flesh, bizarre [E]
[A] diamonds, dust and drink.
[E]
The shoe fox jamming, [B] the [A] lion's lambing, the joker's doing the dancing.
[E] Stealing and queens, [Em] I roll [A] with Jack, remember that, got you beating.

Jack, [A] Jack, [E] Jack, [A]
Jack.
[E]
The night had come [B] into her [A] own, and I made the art of thong my home.
[E]
Beneath my clothes, just [B] a bag of bones.
[A]
Under my skin, just skeletons.
[E] I was rolling like a pair of [A] dice, with one for the laws and one for the lies.
[E] But all of this, I [B] tried to hide, [A]
behind a glaze of sweat and fire.
[E] Yeah, [A]
yeah, [Em] [E]
yeah, yeah.
[A] [E]
Some a mistress, just some [A] a mute.
Something to song for, something blue.
[E] She sussed my needs out [B] of my dreams, [A] and baptized me in flesh that deceives.
[E] And then she laid me, like a baby, [A] on a bed of [E] Spanish [A] moss.
[E] And for love, I would help the devil, [A] just steal Christ right off the cross.
Yeah, [E]
[A] yeah, [Em] [E] yeah, yeah.
[D] [A]
[E] I lay blame [D] on the ark of [A] spar, and the hundredth proof in me.
[E] But the ark, it blames the [D] air, [A] hundred percent humidity.
[E] Well, at least those [B] damned mosquitoes, that [A] brought founder to the flood,
[E] can't offend the old whiskey [A] with their paltry, [E] right-of-butts [A] chopper.
[E]

[D] [E]
[D] [A]
[E]
This portico, it ain't no port at all.
[A] The cap of my cup, and anchors up.
[E] The jokers, they tease another hand.
[A] But they're out of luck, cause I'm out of town.
And [E] the sun, it's like an omen, [A] calling me towards the [A] gospel.
[E] But I got no friends at [A] all, except to drink as [E] soon as [A] possible.
[E] Yeah,
[A]
yeah, [D] yeah, [E] yeah.
I'm a soul [D] man, [A]
soul [E]
man.
I offer [A] confession for the souls and grace of God.
For [E] others, women, women offer mercy.
[A] And mosquitoes, they're a pause.
Yeah, [E] some men offer [D] confession [Em] for [A] their souls and grace of God.
