Verse 1:
 G+G       C majorC        G+G
I done some bad bad things

          C majorC            G+G
The kind you don't bring up at confession

      C majorC         G+G
Somewhere in my life, woah

      C majorC
I took the wrong direction

  D MajorD
I swear on my soul

But I got no way to justify

 G+G
The things I done

Something inside you died

 G+G          C majorC
Now you need some ressurrection

  D MajorD
If you don't want to go down

I swear some people in the world

       C majorC        G+G
They got no moral compass

I feel them walk among us

   D MajorD
The hangman begs for mercy

Only when his time has come

Because he got no way to

Rectify the things he done
