B5
What do I want with my life now that you're gone?
( G5 F#5 A5 ) B5
I want your ghost gone.
B5
What do I want with this wood now that it's sawn?
( G5 F#5 A5 ) B5
I want the stump gone,
( G5 F#5 A5 ) B5
and the land it grew on.
A5 G5 A5
Oh black lagoon, you have my shoe, so I go shoeless.
--((chorus riff))--
G5 F#5 A5 B5 G5 B5
I go mud-dy crawling through.
B5
What do I want with my home now that I'm gone?
( G5 F#5 A5 ) B5
I want the shades drawn,
( G5 F#5 A5 ) B5
and the overgrown lawn.
B5
I would gladly abandon a limb in the trap's jaw,
( G5 F#5 A5 ) B5
Just as long as I crawl on,
( G5 F#5 A5 ) B5
with no trapper to call on.
A5 G5
Thorough and true, by stem and root,
--((chorus riff))--
A5 G5 F#5 A5 B5 G5
I know no-one now. Now I say "who?"
