Verse 1

C

Who are we? Somes I wonder

Em

 Mercenaries or lovers?

F                    C

On this side of the thunder

          G

It can be awful hard to know

C

Sell our love for the paycheck or

Em

Spend the night on the freight deck

    F                 C

For all the dues that we collect

     G

Our hearts can be overdrawn



Chorus

F             C                       G

 Dead in the water, like lamb to the slaughter

                    Am    G   F

If the wind doesn't sing her song

                     C G

And I'm speaking in tongues

F               C G G   C

 'Cause I need a Holy Ghost



Verse 2

     C

The geeks, they can smell when you're coming

Em

Even out in the cold

F                            C

They'll wait you out, yeah, they'll grind you down

     G

But they're gonna get what they're owed

    C

And I know the red thread unravels

   Em

I know you're blue and you're black

      F                  C

But there's still , if you don't mind

     G

The way that the odds are stacked



[Chorus]
