The White Buffalo - Sweet Hereafter
INTRO: F C/F F C/F F C/F
Bb F C
Oh-oh, when I left my mama's home
Bb F
Left her for dead, when I left her all alone
Bb F C
And the whores, well they won't let me be at night
Bb F
They can't replace the warmth I need tonight
C Bb F
'Cause I'm cold, but I'm cold as hell
Bb F C
The lord, he don't wait for me at night
Bb F
He knows what I've done is wrong and it ain't right
Bb F C
But the devil awaits me with open arms
Bb F
And he sways me with his wiles and with his charms
C Bb F C/F Dm
'Cause I'm holding on when there's nothing left to hold onto
C Bb F C/F F C/F
Hold, hold o-on, to the sweet hereafter
F Bb F C
There's a fountain from where I drank from as a child
Bb F C/F
When I was young, I was bored and I was wild
F Bb F C
But since then, well I have grown into a man
Bb F
And I know that I can always stand
C Bb F C/F Dm
But I'm wrong, but I'm still a child
C Bb F C/F F C/F Dm
Hold o-on, to the sweet hereafter
C Bb F C/F
Hold o-on, to the sweet hereafter
