D5 Dadd4 D5 x4
[Verse 1]
D5 Dadd4 D6
Come out, come out, no use in hiding
D5 Dadd4 D6
Come out, come out, can you not see?
D5 Dadd4 D6
Theres no place here what were you expecting?
D5 Dadd4 D6
No room for both, just room for me
[Pre-Chorus]
G D5
So you will lay your arms down
G D5
Yes I will call this home
[Verse 2]
D5 Dadd4 D6
Away away - You have been banished
D5 Dadd4 D6
Your land is gone and given me
[Prechorus]
G D5
And here I will spread my wings
G D5
Yes I will call this home
[Chorus]
Bm
Whats this you say?
G
You feel a right to remain? Then stay
D5
And I will bury you
Bm
Whats this you say?
G
Your fathers spirit still lives in this place?
D5
Well, I will silence you
[Verse 3]
D5 Dadd4 D6
Here's the hitch, your horse is leaving
D5 Dadd4 D6
Don't miss your boat its leaving now
[Prechorus]
G D5
And as you go I will spread my wings
G D5
Yes I will call this home
[Chorus]
Bm
I have no time
G
To justify to you. Fool you're blind
D5
Now move aside for me
Bm
All I can say
G
To you my new neighbor is you must move on
D5
Or I will bury you
G D5
Now as I rest my feet by this fire
G D5
Those hands once warmed here, well I have retired them
G D5
And I can breathe my own air and I can sleep more soundly
[Chorus]
Bm
Upon these poor souls
G D5
I'll build Heaven and call it home
D5
‘Cause you’re all dead now
[Coda]
Bb/D D5
And I live with my justice
Bb/D D5
And I live with my greedy need
Bb/D D5
I'm gonna live with no mercy
Bb/D D5
And I'll live with my frenzied feeding
Bb/D D5
I live with my hatred
Bb/D D5
And I'll live with my jealousy
Bb/D D5
I'm gonna live with the notion
Bb/D D5
That I don't need anyone but me....
Bb/D D5
Don't drink the water
Bb/D D5
Don't drink the water
Bb/D D5
There's blood in the water
Bb/D D5
Don't drink the water
