G                            Em   C         G
The things I don't want to do, I just keep doing
G                     Em C       G
The things I want to do, I can't do
G                 Em  C     G
What a wretched man I am becoming
G                 Em   C    G
What a wretched man I have become
Em   C        G
Who will save me

From this body of death that is looming
From this funeral parlor I keep on seeing
In the corner of my eye while pointing my gun
In the corner of my mind while ignoring the sun
Em    C         G   Em    C          G
It's coming for me, it's coming for me

Em            B        C         G
But what you ask just cannot be done
Em            B       C          G
A spineless heart is what I've become
     Em            B       C        G
This weight on my back is just too heavy
Em                C         G
A holy life just wasn't for me


Keep smearing my heart, all over my sleeve
Someone comes and wipes it off and takes it from me
What's left is hardly mine but just a shadow of myself
For I find that I'm entwined, in a battle over my health
And I can't win, and I can't win

But what you ask just cannot be done
A spineless heart is what I've become
This weight on my back was just too heavy
A holy life just wasn't for me, a holy life just wasn't for me

(harmonica break)

But what you ask just cannot be done
A spineless heart is what I've become
The sweat on my back was just too heavy
You say a holy life still waits for me
You say a holy life still waits for me


That's the song.  Listen to figure it all out, but it's not hard.
