B                  B 
I trusted a priest, I fell to his feet, 
       A                   E                     B 
and he raised me up there, and cut me off at the knees. 
B                  B 
I trusted the law, they didn help me at all, 
          A                     E                   B 
I wound up black, blue, screwed, in the back of his car. 
  
Gb                        Abm    E              Dbm 
 I don want to wake up alone, I need you to hear me now, 
Gb                        Abm   E                
 I don want to do it alone, I need you here with me now. 
Abm                             B                    E          Db 
 I don want to wait for your love, I need you to save me now! 
Abm                             B                       E          Db 
They got me and I never give up, but I need you to save me now. 
                         Abm               B 
 Well, they feed upon the poor, my head is banging on the floor, 
            E                                  Db 
 yes, it over, yes, it over, they lying. 
  Abm                           B                  E

  B                  B 
 I once had a girl, I gave her my world, 
        A                           E                  B 
 but she played around, put me down, still wanted the pearl. 
  B                       B 
 So I went to a priest, yes, I fell to his feet, 
              A          E                      B 
 and he just raised me up to cut me off at the knees.

              Abm                           B

            E                                  Db 
 yes, it over, yes, it over, they dying.
