Every step of the way, we walk alike.

There's only [D] one [A] thing I did wrong.
Stayed in Mississippi [Em] day too [A] long.
Well, my ship's been swimming splinters, it's [D] sinking fast.
I'm drowning in the poison, [A] got no future, got no [D] past.
[A] But my island's not moving, it's lightening and screeching.

I pull the weight of this heart on my skin.
Now this [C#m] heart is a corner [Bm] of my [E]
eye.
