Clownin Around chords by Deer Tick

Guitar chords with lyrics

Intro:  E minorEm

            G+G
Though I've walked down a crooked path
           E minorEm
That don't mean that it wasn't cursed
          G+G
My feeble heart was filled with wrath
          E minorEm
My poison mind with thoughts perverse
        C majorC
And the devil is living in my basement
           C majorC
I'm trying hard to hide him from my wife
      C majorC
And I know someday I'm gonna have to face him
        C majorC
But for now I keep my secrets with the night
D MajorD
     G+G
As I breeze through this windy city
    E minorEm
The devil he now rides upon my back
And all the boys here look mighty pretty
I need a fix and lord, I need it fast
         C majorC
I let my houseguests rest in my crawlspace
Don't let anyone tell you that I'm a bad host
I take cover behind my white facepaint
While I battle my bitter father's ghost
D MajorD

D MajorD    "

       G+G
And by now the hounds have surely caught my scent
          E minorEm
In just a short time I'm no longer free
Oh lord you know I would repent
But the devil he now speaks for me
        C majorC
And the icy needle kisses my veins
As I kiss my dear sister goodbye
Now as I descend into the final flames
It's my turn to die
D MajorD
