E5 (riff)
Blistered cracked and bleeding
Cold no one should know
Rain falls down a freezing
And sticking like a snow

Lingering suspicions
Screaming out my head
Lies all mixed up with omissions
All welcome home again

A5                              C5
It's too late for apologies and falling at my feet

E5                                     A5
This is just the way of the world Joe said
                B5               E5
I had to put a bullet into his head
                  A5
Then lit up a cigarette
            Ab5                  E5
Decided to call his best friend Fred
                                   A5
Well he said Fred I just killed a man
            B5                    E5
Caught him laying with my girlfriend
                       A5              Ab5               B5             
Now they're both dead, used to be so cold when they're dead

E5 (riff)
Calling all the neighbors
Time to make amends
Whiskey floods the table
Aw good friends 'til the end

A5                              C5
They're making silly faces and it's tasting bitter sweet

E5 ....
This is just the way of the world Joe said
I had to put a bullet into his head
Then lit up a cigarette
Decided to call his best friend Fred
Well he said Fred I just killed a man
Caught him laying with my girlfriend
Now they're both dead, people can be so cold when they're dead
