no [G]match for [Em]the truth
[G]The crowd down here put
it[Em]s teeth in us
But [G]the cure's more [G5]dan
[G]gerous than [Em]the [C]venom is
So we leave it [Em]in and do[C] those things that
make us [Em]forget that we're dying [C]here
Oh but we're dying [C5]here[C#5]

I'm and [D]ox that wanders
into [F#m]the swamp[A]
[C#5]I'm a ratt[C5]lesn[D]ake across
[C]a b[Em]raided rope
I'm the de[D]mon [Em]on your

[A]Com[C5]e bai[C]l [Em]me ou[G]t
[G5]of the s[Em]tate I'm in[G]
The drinks I've had are no
match for [Em]the truth
[G]The crowd down here put
it[Em]s teeth in us
But [G]the cure's more dangerous
than [C]the venom is
So we leave it [Em]in and do[C] those
things that make us [Em]forget
that we're dying [C]here
[Em]Oh but we're dyi[C]ng h[C5]ere[C#5]
