Standard Tuning - Capo 2 (chords relative to capo)

Intro Part 1: C
Intro Part 2: C F Am G C F G

C                     F
Little did I know it then

     Am                      G
The pictures on the heads of pins

    C                  F
�Be easier than living is

G
Easier to watch you die

C                         F
Lost what little luck was left

     Am                    G
It�s not enough to pay the rent

C                     F
Not enough to force repentance

G
Not enough to make you pray

F              G           C        F
And don�t tell me �bout the sins of man

Am               G                  C
I�ve felt the sting of God�s right hand

I find him after school in bed
And don�t know if he�s drunk or dead
A slow but steady breath means
Live to wreck another day

It�s terrible to cross my mind
That I should do him in this time
And I could find a better life
Become a burden on the state

You can�t run when it�s all you know
You�ll just have to wait to go

(Guitar just plays C for the bridge)

And you can�t hurt me �cause I�ve been true
Your horrid life caught up to you

But I got bruises that you can�t see
If there�s a god, take him from me.

End on C
