 G             C                G
I done some bad bad things

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

           C                  G
Somewhere in my life, woah

            C
I took the wrong direction

   D
I swear on my soul

          C
I didn't want to hurt no one

 G              C             G
But I got no way to justify

 G
The things I done

If you're good at telling lies

 C7
You could be my alibi

The kind that don't bare to mention

             C
Something inside you died

 G                   C
Now you need some ressurrection

    D
If you don't want to go down

      C
Just like the setting sun

     G               C             G
You got to find a way to reconcile

The things you done

 G              C                     G
I swear some people in the world

             C               G
They got no moral compass

            C             G
I know the wicked ones

             C
I feel them walk among us

     D
The hangman begs for mercy

      C
Only when his time has come

   G                 C
Because he got no way to

Rectify the things he done

 G                  F                     G
I won't take the fall for where I've been

 G                   F                     D
I won't take that fall for where I've been, no
