[Em] [G]
[D] [C]
[Em] [G]
[D] [C]
Oh, [Em] put it on, take [G] it off real quick on [D] the bottom of a pile
I'm [C] feeling sick
[Em] It never crossed my mind that [G] my baby might know
[D] The key to the [C] biggest gift
So [Em] I can sleep all day and [G] I dream all night
With [D] the bottle in my hand I take [C] the devil's side
I [Em] smile real big just [G] to keep it
Old [D] truth about my lack of will
[C]
So [Em] I run like hell [G] from the city's glow
I lose [D] my name, my past and forget [C] the folks I used to know
[Em] So I'm home far away [G] from the city gates
And [D] the long reach of [C] government
[Em] Oh, all along [G] in a cold north scene
[D] And through the sky a [C] plane flew over me
[Em] Banner posted, [G] you are a fool
Did you [D] really think you'd [C] ever win?
[D] I am taking off my dirty [C] skin
There [G] is [D] nothing to refute [C] my sin
I feel [G] no [C] one
I [Am] feel [G] no [C] one but [D] you
You [Am] don't [G] have [C]
a [Am] high life
[G] Only to tell [D] the truth
[Em]
Oh, see the [G] manes of the higher call
Oh, you [D] pawn off your words so the calls won't [Em] stop
I'll burn my [G] clothes and lock up my soul
And [D] pretend that I was never [C] born
Oh [Em] my lord, look [G] what you have done
Spit [D] your head out on the floor like you're [C] the chosen one
[Em] I'd give her my heart but [G] she wanted no part
So I [D] sold it to an antique [C] store
So [Em] I dug a hole four [G] thousand miles down
[D] To the center of the earth where I [C] would not be found
[Em] Memories of the moon [G] say you'll see him soon
Oh, [D] I was always partial to [C] the sun
I [Em] was picked up by two [G] men of the law
They [D] said we're taking you downtown
[C] Forget about your cause
[Em] Hell's no place [G] for a wandering face
[D] Go take it up with the answer [C] book
[D] You laugh as you pull out the [C] rug
I [D] was never really much [C] of a
I feel [G] no one
[C] I [Am]
feel [G] no [C] one but [D] you
[Am] I'll cry [G] my [C]
[Am] eyes out
[G] [C] Until the [D] truth no [Em] more
