Verse 2: D(all the way) So they marched me down to the center of town With their pitchforks high in the air I was chained and bound with a blindfold around So the judge wouldn't catch my stare And they hung my soul from the gallows pole But the witch they never found So to those who don't fit society's mold Learn to swim or you will drown (Repeat Refrain) Chorus: Bb And the angels sing F let it shine let it shine Cm Dry the teardrops Gm from my eyes Bb And the bells will ring when F the blind lead the blind Cm Gm Cause the dead can't testify Bb And because I can't F take an eye for an eye Eb In the afterlife I'll Gm D-- haunt you till you die!

Eb And the birds don't sing no they don't make a sound D with your 6 feet underground!!! Eb So I look to the sky F# tell me why tell me why Gm F/A Bb Do they all get to live Cm D and I have to die?
