[Intro 1]
[Am][F][Am][F][Am]

[Verse 1]
I am [F]levitating
[Am]somewhere down the road[F]
[Dm]With[D] a price on my head [Dsus4]and[D][Am]
the shadow of a black crow, [F]yeah
He's [Am]been on my [F]tail
[Dm]for [Am]close to three days[F]
[Dm]Just [D]a little souvenir of [E]my wicked ways

[Verse 2]
I would [F]rather die fast than
to [G]ever live slow
[C]Father, forgive me what my
[Am]mother don't know
[Dm]The scratch marks on my [E]soul
From [Am]the shadow of a [C]black [Am]crow[F]
[Dm]I've

[Verse 3]
[Am]got a box of [F]reds [Dm]and a
[Am]bottle of [G]the blues[Am][F]
[Dm]Comes [D]a time in your life,
[Am]honey, you've gotta choo[F]se
[Dm]My b[Am]elly's on fi[F]re f[Dm]rom
[Am]the acid of the [F]truth
[Dm]All the untold l[D]ies of m[Am]y mi[E]sspent youth

[Verse 4]
I would [F]rather die fast than
to [G]ever live slow
[C]Father, forgive me what my
[Am]mother don't know
[Dm]The scratch marks on my [E]soul
From [Am]the shadow of a [C]black [Am]crow

[Verse 5]
[F]
It's pretty when you're [Am]young
Just a pity when you're old, [F]yeah
Am I running away,
[Am]am I closer to h[D]ome?[F]
[Am]The lines

[Verse 6]
and [F]the signs
[Am]and the miles go [F]by
[D]No one ever [Dm]bothered[D]
[Dm]to e[Am]ven ask me why[F]
So [Am]I am disappearing into this roa[F]d
[Dm]With a six [D]pack [Dm]of sorrow
[Am]and [E]a shadow of a black crow
I [Em]would

[Verse 7]
[F]rather die fast than
to [G]ever live slow
[C]Father, forgive me what my
[Am]mother don't know
[Dm]The scratch marks on my [E]soul

[Verse 8]
I would [F]rather die fast than
to [G]ever live slow
[C]Father, forgive me what my
[Am]mother don't know
[Dm]The scratch marks on my [E]soul
From [Am]the shadow of a [C]black crow
