[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Blackness [D] was a virtue, you know [G] the road was full of mud
_ _ Coming _ out of [Dm] the wilderness I was a [C] creature void of [G] _ hope

_ _ _ _ _ _ You know the devil do you [D] walk so hard nails and [C] the preacher rides a [D] mount
_ [G] _
Nothing [D] really matters though cause it's [C] only _ doom [G] alone that can
And no one I'd [D] undertake but he [C] can blow a few [G] little horns
Come in she [D] said I'll give you [C] _

Offered up [D]
salvation you know she [C] gave me a [G] lethal _ dose
_ Offered up my [D]
innocence you know I [C] got _ reframed to a [G] scorn
Come in she said [D] I'll give you [C] _ _ [G] shelter from the [D] storm
_ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] Well there's a wall [D] between us you know [C]
there's something else in [G] love _ _
Too [D] much for credit you know I got [C] all my signals
_ _ _ [G] _
Just to [D] think it all begun [C] so my heart and my soul, [G] more in common
