[Intro]
Em Gadd6 Am C
Em Gadd6 Am B7 Em
[Verse]
Em
Don't tell me that you love me
Gadd6
I've got nothing left in turn
Am
Except this empty bag of promises
C
And second degree burns
Em
On the tips of my fingers
Gadd6
From touching certain fruit
Am B7 Em
That I never should have touched in the first place
[Chorus]
Well the sky's raining fire
But I think I'll go to bed
Because there aint much you can do
When it burns down on your head
Except pray and beg for mercy
From this hell that you created
On the corner of Satan and St. Paul
[Bridge]
Am Amadd9 Em
And my cup it runneth over
Am Amadd9 Em
And it runs down in my eyes
Am Amadd9 Em
Maybe when I'm a little older
Am B7
I won’t tell myself so many lies
[Chorus]
Well it took me twenty years
Just to find myself a pen
For to write down all the words
Just to scratch them out again
I could use another twenty years
To fix the last fifteen
But it never seems to work to my advantage
[Verse]
Now I'm walking here on rusted nails
With broken wings and battered sails
I told you that I'm leaving
But I'm probably telling lies
If only I could make it out
To Denver, Colorado
I'd book it out of Satan and St. Paul
