VERSE
E5               G5                 A5
Bought the old farmland for a song 
A5           C5                   D5
Sold it for many reasons 

Too many of them wrong 
             G5                 C5
Horseshoe bets and the women that came along 
A5                    E5          A5
Blind-drunk on their demon rum 

VERSE
Is knowledge a product of his loneliness 
A mad cousin to his holiness 
Maniacs in cages 
And patriots and sages 
A cruel old/on telling of the books 

REFRAIN
C5   E5    A5
But I'll not give 
G5  A5            E5
Myself, to the ground 
   C5   E5      A5   G5
I kill more than I 
A5  E5   G5
Live so slowly 
A5  E5   G5
Live so slowly

VERSE
Say one thing and then do another 
Bunker down in your alsatian den
We 'aint got room for your politics here 
Politicians make a bad name for the con-man 

VERSE
And water felt like burning metal 
Set off by a dying sun 
Them women they circle 
Like covered wagons crying 
Their loved ones back from where they, gone 

REFRAIN
And I'll not give 
Myself to the ground 
I kill more than I 
Live so slowly 
Live so slowly
