Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

I'm up here somewhere so high in the climb

Too many people running loose in the mind

Send us a king or someone else that can bring

Some order where otherwise everything is

Eye for an eye, truth for a truth

 Here I lie, my arms around you

 Yes you would be blind if you only knew

 It was eye for an eye and truth for truth

Pack up your wagon girl and button your coat

Look up and see me coming out of the smoke

Footprints of angels leaving tracks in the snow

I'm the last man that sweetheart you oughta know

When it's eye for an eye and truth for a truth

Here I lie, my arms around you

You would be blind if you only knew

It was eye for an eye and truth for a truth

Bridge

It's good to be hungry

 The apple of somebody's eye

Ain't nothing so pretty in this terrible light

All hands on deck and all men to the tower

 I'm a virtueless man in the midnight hour

Now it's junk on junk, this bed that we made

Where I sleep like a horse standing up on the clay

Got to be ready, there's so much hell to pay

And I'm guilty of loving you in the worse kind of way

Eye for an eye, truth for a truth

Here I lie, my arms around you

You would be blind if you only knew

It was eye for an eye and truth for truth
