A jester of sorts you stand holding your courts
Over minions on Capitol Hill
In a bath full of blood I'm alone standing still
Under God you can fire at will
When the devil's angels come
To take your life and lead you
To the flamers beneath
Your headstone reads now
Here lies the dead who was
Hung by his head beneath us
They're laying in their graves
Damnation free for all
A prodigal son can't undo what he's done
A figurehead of capitol crime
With a light shining down
As you fall to your kness
To repent would be nothing but lies
When the devil's angels come
To take your life and lead you
To the flamers beneath
Your headstone reads now
Here lies the dead who was
Hung by his head beneath us
They're laying in their graves
Damnation free for all

^ there should go the solo which i won't be tabbing here those, notes maybe don't make
cause Deryck keeps on playing live single notes of Bm - G - D - Fthough it sounds good
you want to replace the solo with 'chords'
Deadbeat six feet dead underground
An eye for an eye only leaves us all blind
Going once twice there goes your life
When the devil's angels come
To take your life and lead you
To the flamers beneath
Your headstone reads now
Here lies the dead who was
Hung by his head beneath us
They're laying in their graves
Damnation free for
all
