In the summer that I was baptized my father held me to his side
        A minorAm    E minorEm A minorAm     E minorEm  A minorAm     A minorAm E minorEm
As they put me to the water he said how on that day I cried
     A minorAm     C majorC
We were prisoners of love a love in chains
     A minorAm            C majorC
He was standin' in the door I was standin' in the rain
     A minorAm          B7B7
With the same hot blood burning in our veins
   E minorEm    A minorAm  E minorEm      A minorAm
Adam raised a Cain, Adam raised a Cain
   E minorEm    A minorAm  E minorEm      A minorAm
Adam raised a Cain, Adam raised a Cain

All of the old faces ask you why you're back
They fit you with position and the keys to your daddy's Cadillac
In the darkness of your room your mother calls you by your true name
You remember the faces the places the names
You know it's never over it's relentless as the rain
Adam raised a Cain, Adam raised a Cain,
Adam raised a Cain, Adam raised a Cain

E minorEm A minorAm  E minorEm A minorAm  E minorEm A minorAm  A minorAm  E minorEm
Em
 Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh

In the Bible Cain slew Abel and East of Eden he was cast
You're born into this life paying for the sins of somebody else's past
Daddy worked his whole life for nothing but the pain
Now he walks these empty rooms looking for something to blame
You inherit the sins you inherit the flames
Adam raised a Cain, Adam raised a Cain,
Adam raised a Cain, Adam raised a Cain

 A minorAm               C majorC
Lost but not forgotten from the dark heart of a dream
   E minorEm    A minorAm
Adam raised a Cain (to fade out)
