ok guys I can't seem to find a good chords tab for this song, so based of ear and live
performances here's what I think. I like to play it acosutic like they do in their
performance in Denver.
Capo 3
chords are Em (022000) EmMaj7 (021000) E7 (020000) G (320003) or (355433) and B (024442)
intro in recorded version- Em EmMaj7 E7 G B (arpeggiate the chords for 2 measures) on
end of second measure strum the G and B regularly 3 times)
(arpeggiate verse if you want to it doesn't matter that much)
Em EmMaj7 E7 G B
Give us this day our daily dose of faux affliction
Em G B
Forgive our sins forged at the pulpit with forked-tongue-selling faux sermons
Em EmMaj7 E7 G B
'Cause I am a new wave of gospel sharp and you'll be thy witness
Em G B
So gentlemen if you're gonna preach. For God's sake, preach with conviction
Em

In this little number, we're graced by two displays of character
Em G B
We've got: the gunslinger extraordinaire walking contradiction
Em EmMaj7 E7
And I for one can see no blood from the hearts and the wrists you'd

allegedly slit
Em EmMaj7 G
And I for one won't stand for this. If this scene were a parish, you'd all

be condemned.
