Verse
Am G
And it's been forty days
Am G
I've tried forty ways
Am G
You will never quite leave your sins behind
Am G
They'll haunt you, taunt you 'til the day you die
Am G
You will never really go
Am G
You'll just think about it much but you'll need to know
Am G
How the story ends, so you'll sit around,
Am G
Even though you should just go
Am G
Tell your friends what you have heard,
Am G
Show them all the lies unlearned
Am G
And when you really go, you will really know you were never meant for earth
Am
What's it worth?
G Am G
If we're going to break it down with any logic, it's absurd

Chorus
F E C Am
And no matter where we go, we are not alone
F E Am G
When the silence turns to cries of "Wh---y?"
F E C Dm
What a way to begin: we inherit sin
F E Am
And nobody's going to quench your thirst when the well runs dry
G Am
(Well runs dry)
G Am G Am
And nobody's going to hold your hand on the day you die

Am G Am G
I've tasted seven sins, so they won't let me in
Am G Am G
I knock knock knock until my knuckles are bruised and raw
Am G Am G
Stuck in the middle with my blood in a puddle on the floor
Am G Am G
We made our beds, we'll judge ourselves
Am G Am G
And only then and there will we disappear to our final resting place
Am G
What a waste!
Am G
So many decent people at the gates
