Em G D C (x2)
Em. G.
Oh put it on take it off real quick
D. C
On the bottom of the pile and I’m feeling sick
Em. G
It never crossed my mind that my baby lied
D. C
To keep me in the beggar’s guild
Em. G.
So I sleep all day and I dream all night
D. C
With the bottle in my hand I take the devil’s side
Em. G
I smile real big just to keep it hid
D. C
Oh the truth about my lack of will
Em. G.
Oh I run like hell from the city’s glow
D. C
I lose my name I pass and forget the folks I used to know
Em. G
If I go far away from the city gates
D. C
And the long reach of the government
Em. G
Oh all alone in a cold north scene
D. C
In the blue sky above a plane flew over me
Em. G
The banner it pulled said “You were a fool
D. C
Did you really think you’d ever win ”
D. C
I’m taking off my dirty skin
D. C
There is nothing to refute my sin
Am. G. C.
I fear no one
Am. G. C. D
I fear no one but you
Am. G. C
Don’t care no no
Am. G. C. D
I lie only to tell the truth
(No)
Em (x2)
Em. G
Well the steep demands of the higher call
D. C
Oh you pawn off the world so the cars won’t stall
Em. G
I’ll burn my clothes and I’ll gut my soul
D C
And pretend that I was never born
Em. G
Oh my oh my look what you have done
D. C
Split your head out on the floor like you’re the chosen one
Em. G
I gave her my heart but she wanted no part
D. C
So I sold it to an antique store
Em. G
So I dug a hole four thousand miles deep
D. C
To the center of the earth where I will not be found
Em. G
Memories of the moon singing “See you soon ”
D. C
Though I was always partial to the sun
Em. G
I was picked up by two men of the law
D. C
They said “We’re taking you downtown forget about your call ”
Em. G
Hell’s no place for a wandering man
D C
Go take it up with Beelzebub
D. C
You laugh as you pull the rug
D. C
I was never really much in love
Am. G. C.
I fear no one
Am. G. C. D
I fear no one but you
Am. G. C
Don’t care no no
Am. G. C. D
I lie only to tell the truth
