Well, I've been up to the mountain
Seen the ashes down below
I had breakfast with the wise man
He told me what he thought I should know
C majorC G+G
And I've been to bed with Jezebel
C majorC GsusGsus G/DG/D GsusGsus G/DG/D
I found the well was deep

For a warmer place to sleep

For a warmer place to sleep
Kick it in one time, yeah

Well, I've seen the heart of darkness
Read the writing on the wall
And the voice out in the desert
Was the voice I heard out in the hall

And once he called me Abel

And once he called me Cain

Than a heart torn from the streets
