Artist: SONS
Song: Masters of the Flattery
[Verse 1]
Dm Bb
When the water rose above my knees
Dm Am
I took my flesh and I threw it to the sea
Dm Bb Am
My darling I'm drowning in disbelief
[Main riff]
Bb Am Dm (4x)
[Verse 2]
Bb Am Dm
Fire and brimstone is what they preached to me
Bb Am Dm
But I saw the fire they couldn't reach
Bb Am
And with their hands outstretched every one of them
Dm
Was making amends with God
Bb Am
But the fire wasn't hot enough and now
And now I’m burning alive
[Pre-chorus]
Bb Am Dm
Get get get
Bb Am Dm
Get your kicks while you can.
Bb Am Dm
We are the masters of the flattery for every man
F
Handing habits to the free
Am
Taking all that we can
[Chorus]
Bb Am Dm
Wait I have made a mistake
Dm
Take me back for Heaven's sake
Bb Am Dm
I have found myself alone
Bb Am Dm
Grace, you have made me a saint
Dm
How could you not know my name?
Bb Am
I was lied to all along
[Verse 3]
Bb Am
I can't believe in this
Dm
Not even if I try as hard as I can
Bb Am
I'll be the judge
Dm
Of who's wrong and who's right and who's rightfully damned
Bb Am Dm
Don't play me like a member of your congregation
Bb Am
You're just as crooked as this "Christian" nation
[Main riff]
Bb Am Dm (2x)
[Pre-chorus]
Bb Am Dm
Get get get
Bb Am Dm
Get your kicks while you can.
Bb Am Dm
We are the masters of the flattery for every man
F
Handing habits to the free
Am
Taking all that we can
[Chorus]
Bb Am Dm
Wait I have made a mistake
Dm
Take me back for Heaven's sake
Bb Am Dm
I have found myself alone
Bb Am Dm
Grace, you have made me a saint
Dm
How could you not know my name?
Bb Am
I was lied to all along
