Capo: 1st Fret
Intro - Em
You kick the [G]blow, now you've gotta kick the [Em]guy.
You sat a[G]lone under billowing [Em]sky
If I feel [D]God judging [Em]me,
Well I fell into the [D]water, and now Iā??[Em]m free.
My f[Em]riends they donā??t really get me,
think Iā??m the only one
Well i s[G]old my soul to J[D]esus and since t[C]hen ive had no [Em]fun
Behind e[Em]very tree is a cutting machine and a kite fallen from grace
Inside e[G]very man is a h[D]eart of sand you can s[C]ee it in his f[Em]ace.
Heā??ll[Em] tick tick tick tick tick tick tick[D] away.
Another s[Em]econd lost with every fallen gr[D]ain.
Heā??ll[Em] tick tick tick tick tick tick tick[D] away.
Another s[Em]econd lost with every fallen g[D]rain.
The w[Em]ind and I, we speak the same, but he donā??t hear so well.
Youā??re[D] gonna have to curse him,
Well youā??re[Em] gonna have to yell.
The s[Em]ky and I, weā??ve had our fights and Iā??m coming round to rain,
If the r[G]ain come round and d[D]onā??t go out,
and Iā??ll[C] never have to speak[Em] again,
I can t[Em]ick tick tick tick tick tick tick a[D]way.
Another s[Em]econd lost with every fallen gr[D]ain.
Can t[Em]ick tick tick tick tick tick tick a[D]way.
Another s[Em]econd lost with every fallen g[D]rain.
The c[Em]aptains got his boots on and heā??s heading out the door,
L[D]eaving his lady alone thinkin' "[Em]He donā??t love me no more."
Heā??s[Em] done with all this bullsh*t,
Heā??s going back to war,
If H[G]eaven is as H[D]eaven does,
then t[C]his is Hell for s[Em]ure...
And heā??ll[Em] tick tick tick tick tick tick tick[D] away.
Another s[Em]econd lost with every fallen gr[D]ain.
Heā??ll[Em] tick tick tick tick tick tick tick[D] away.
Another s[Em]econd lost with every fallen g[D]rain.
You kick the [G]blow, now you've gotta kick the [Em]guy.
You sat a[G]lone under billowing [Em]sky
If I feel [D]God judging [Em]me,
Well I fell into the [D]water, now Iā??[Em]m free.
