"mud-dy crawling through"
Verse riff referred to below as (, , ),
Chorus riff notated above the chords as --((chorus riff))--,
this is to make everything clearer,
I hope it works as intended.
What do I want with my life now that you're gone?
( )
I want your ghost gone.
What do I want with this wood now that it's sawn?
( )
I want the stump gone,
( )
and the land it grew on.
Oh black lagoon, you have my shoe, so I go shoeless.
--((chorus riff))--
I go mud-dy crawling through.
What do I want with my home now that I'm gone?
( )
I want the shades drawn,
( )
and the overgrown lawn.
I would gladly abandon a limb in the trap's jaw,
( )
Just as long as I crawl on,
( )
with no trapper to call on.
Thorough and true, by stem and root,
--((chorus riff))--
I know no-one now. Now I say "who?"
