(throughout the song he uses small licks to not just play the plain chords;
quite similar to the intro and sometimes slightly differently)

   E5                   D5                 A5 
My mother says that the devil lives in my throat
   E5                   D5                 A5   
My mother says that the devil lives in my throat

E5                   D5
Although my heart is golden 
   A5                  E5
My throat is mould in red
    E5                D5   
The hell of it is I'm shouldering weight
   A5               E5
Of everything left unsaid
   E5                    D5
My thousands of years of relatives 
      A5                    E5  
Who's throats were made of lead

E5                      D5                 A5 
My mother says that the devil lives in my throat
My mother says there's a demon in my guitar
My mother says there's a demon in my guitar

Although it's crafted beautifully
The sound is quite bizarre
The wood was taken from a casket
That could not contain the law
Of a god who's bones are bleeching
Under the sun who setted on

My mother says there's a demon in my guitar
And my mother says that the end is coming soon
My mother says that the end is coming soon

Although she doesn't know the middle
She says it started with a word
That rhymes with man's conspiracy 
And the condition's had'em cured 
I offer her my condolences
For the shepperd and the herd

My mother says that the end is coming soon

My mother says that my songs contain no good
My mother says that my songs contain no good

Although my heart is golden 
My throat is mould in red
The hell of it is I'm shouldering weight
Of everything left unsaid
My thousands of years of relatives 
Who's throats were made of lead

My mother says that the devil lives in my throat
