Standard (EADGBE)

Keep the e and b strings open while playing the a and b chords

and maybe leave

the high e open when you're playing the C#m too, if it's barred).

(Also, keep in mind that the verses are in 7/4, so listen to the original if you

haven't already to know when to change chords.)

 Between heaven and hell the devil in me,

Burned another branch on the family tree,

 You take the bottle from my hand the whiskey off my breath,

Tell me is there really still anything left,

 There's a limit to livin' on Gods green earth,

I'm still tryin' to figure what that's worth,

 Not makin' any choices I'm just makin' mistakes,

Livin' in a world where the sinners are saints,

How can I win when the battle keeps changing,

Should I just lay down my gun,

Surrender to the demons I'm facing,

Do I fight or do I run,

 Is this the moment I finally take a stand,

 And win this war on a desperate man.

 Been praying to God to let me hear his voice,

Could take me now if that's his choice,

Who's it gonna be who makes me realize,

 There are days I don't even wanna open my eyes.

How can I win when the battle keeps changing,

Should I just lay down my gun,

Surrender to the demons I'm facing,

Do I fight or do I run,

 Is this the moment I finally take a stand,

 And win this war on a desperate man.

On a desperate man...
