[Verse 1]
Well [Eb]here lie the [Bb]re mains
Of [D]every girl I've [Eb]loved
The princesses of heaven and [Bb]hell
Who [D]thought they knew me [Eb]well
There goes my wish[Bb]bone
It [D]calms my crooked [Eb]friend
Screaming he knew I was [Bb]dead
[D]True right down to the [Dm]end

[Verse 2]
[G]I was in a fury with a[F] judge
and with a jury
[C]You [G]could tell I was a wicked [Dm]man[F]
Well [C]there was [G]no one on the wall
But [F]the stupid and the small
[C]But they [G]always do the best they [Dm]can

[Verse 3]
Well [Eb]here lies mother [Bb]Brown
She al[D]ways looked so [Eb]young
I was never too easy to [Bb]please
[D]Al ways on my [Eb]knees
Well there goes my last [Bb]hope
Here [D]comes my bullet [Eb]train
Shooting the hole in my [Bb]head
On [D]the wrong right side of my brain

[Verse 4]
[G]I was getting ready
I was [F]shaking, I was [C]steady
I was [G]pleading to be left [Dm]alive[F]
Well [C]I was d[G]igging for the gold
Just [F]waiting to be told
[C]That my [G]cheating heart
would sur[Dm]vive[F]
[C]I

[Verse 5]
[G]was in a fury with
[F]a judge and with a jury
[C]You could [G]tell I was a wicked [Dm]man[F]

[Verse 6]
Well [Eb]here lie the [Bb]remains of sav[D]ing lady [Eb]death
Her old man streamed up in a [Bb]hole
An[D]other uneven [Eb]soul
There goes my last [Bb]wish
[D]Here comes my audi[Eb]ence
Pitchforks pointing my [Bb]way
And it's [D]no coincidence

[Verse 7]
[D]
[G]I was in a bind of the b[F]ody and the mind
[C]And my [G]mother was the last to [Dm]know[C]
[F]Whe[C]n I tol[G]d her I was runnin'
I was [F]better [Bb]off a'gone
[C]And she [G]never even said no, [C]no, no, [F]no, [C]no

[Verse 8]
[G]I was never thick but the
[F]fall wouldn't click
[C]So I [G]never had the best ex[Dm]cuse
[F]You cou[C]ldn't say[G] that I was best
So they [F]put me to [C]the test
With [G]a never ending soul ab[Dm]use
[C]I

[Verse 9]
[G]was in a fury with a
[F]judge and with [C]a jury
You could [G]tell I was a wicked [Dm]man[F]
[C]Well there was no [G]one on the wall
But [F]the stupid and [Bb]the small
[C]But they always do the best they can

[Verse 10]
[G]I was getting ready
I [F]was shaking, I was [C]steady
I was [G]pleading to be left [Dm]alive[F]
[C]Well I was dig[G]ging for the gold
Just [F]waiting to be told
[C]That my [G]cheating heart would survive
