VERSE:
A D A C D A
After that confrontation, you left me wringing my cold hands
D G D
We shared some information, we might not recover from
A D A C D A
And i watch your convictions, melt like ice cubes in an ocean
D E
You were so poorly cast as a malcontent
CHORUS:
G D C
You've got them all on your side
D G
That just makes more for doubt to slaughter
D C
I never knew he thought that
D G
I heard you say falling out of the van
D C D G
Don't ask for his opinion; they ought to drown him in holy water
D E
Will you remember my reply, when your high horse dies?
VERSE 2 (VERSE CHORDS)
We'd like to go the distance
But not a one of us is going to you
See no one is wise enough to turn the ancient boat around
These are the muddy waters I am swimming in
To make a living were I to drown in them
It should come as no surprise
