SJ Tucker - The Truth About Ninjas chords
Start Jamming...
[N] [Bm] Paragon of dignity.
Oh, and this is also for all of the ninjas on Second Life watching right now.
[G] Untouchable and lethal.
[D] You're all ninjas as far as [B] I'm concerned.
But there's more to [F#] life than [Bm] shuriken.
Sudden death [E] comes easy when you practice every day.
You'll think you're ten feet tall and [D] bulletproof until you [F#] pass my way.
And [B] you will never see it [E] coming.
No one's sad to see you go.
[F#] Within my eyes you'll glimpse the wisdom you were not prepared to know.
[Em] In fearing what [D] you cannot see, [A] you'll fall beneath my hand.
[F#] This is a ninja thing you [Bm] wouldn't understand.
You will never [Em] know I'm here until it's far too late.
It [A] is a ninja's way to pass [D] unseen and [F#] not to storm the gate.
[Bm] Moving quieter than [E] kittens circled, navigating lore.
[F#] Tiptoeing my [D] cell as [F#] nightfall.
Until I [D] pounce and disappear again, [E] you'll never hear a thing.
The soul has [D] always been corrupted, but the heart and hands are clean.
So [Bm] when enemies fall lifeless, though they never see my face, the game is [D] glory, but I take my joy in leaving naught [F#] to trace.
My actions quick [D] as lightning, unintended [Bm] to hurt you.
[F#] I'm only doing what a ninja's gotta [B] do.
[D] [B] [D] Following [Em] the way you [F#] creep night and day.
[B] I won't say life is [G] hard, [F#] but I must restrain my urges to run naked through God sees ya.
[D]
No ninja goes out streaking, it just [Em] simply isn't done.
[A] In my career, I'd [D] shrivel up and dive a dam.
But it'd be fun to [B] see the neighbor's eyes [Em] as big as saucers peering from their doors.
[F#] I'd pirouette beneath the moonlight, days of skulking, hiding, sneaking, and assassinating enemies no more.
[Em]
Just [D] one sneak of brightness [A] in a world [B] of rock and roll, I'd just [F#] be doing what a ninja's [Bm] gotta do.
[F#] Wouldn't you [G] [F#] go skinning like a [B] ninja's gotta do?
[F#]
