Capo 5th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

in rhythm with the bass)

(palm mute) (Bend down entire chord)

Well, the crooks are out

And the streets are gray

You know I wouldn't have it

Any other way, yeah

(palm mute) (Bend down entire chord)

Your mother's words

They're, they're ringing still

But your mother

Don't pay our bills, yeah

A sinister kid, is a kid who

Runs to meet his maker

A drop dead sprint from the day he's born

Straight into his makers arms

And that's me, that's me

The boy with the broken halo

That's me, that's me

The devil won't let me be

(palm mute) (Bend down entire chord)

I got a tortured mind

And my blade is sharp

A bad combination

In the dark

(palm mute) (Bend down entire chord)

If I kill a man

In the first degree

Baby, would you

Would you flee with me?

(Chorus Repeated as necessary)
