VERSE:
           C              F     F          C
Well I`m grinding my life out, steady and sure
 C             F                 F         C
Nothing more wretched, then what I must endure
     C               F           F              C
I`m drenched in the light that shines from the sun
          C           F              F              C
I could stone you to death for the wrongs that you done
 Am                  Dm      Am
Sooner or later you make a mistake,
 Am                               Dm         Am
I`ll put you in a chain that you never will break
 C        F        F        C
Legs and arms and body and bone
C         F          F      C
I pay in blood, but not my own

G F   C F F C


VERSE:
 C            F     F         C
Night after night, Day after day
       C         F       F      C
They strip your useless hopes away
     C      F        F      C
The more I take the more I give
     C      F       F      C
The more I die the more I live
       Am                               Dm       Am
I got something in my pocket make your eyeballs swim
       Am                  Dm        Am
I got dogs could tear you limb from limb
     C          F        F        C
I`m circlin` around the Southern Zone
C         F          F      C
I pay in blood, but not my own

Low cards are what I`ve got
But I`ll play this hand whether I like it or not
I`m sworn to uphold the laws of God
You could put me out in front of a firing squad
      Am Dm Am
      Am Dm Am
I`ve been out and around with the rising men
Just like you my handsome friend
      C F F C
My head`s so hard, must be made of stone
C         F          F      C
I pay in blood, but not my own

Another politician coming out the abyss
Another angry beggar blowing you a kiss
You got the same eyes that your mother does
If only you could prove who your father was
      Am Dm Am
      Am Dm Am
Someone must of slipped a drug in yer wine
You gulped it down and you cross the line
      C F F C
Man can`t live by bread alone
C         F          F      C
I pay in blood, but not my own

How I made it back home, nobody knows
Or how I survived so many blows
I`ve been thru Hell, What good did it do?
You bastard! I`m suppose to respect you!
      Am Dm Am
      Am Dm Am
I`ll give you justice, I`ll fathom your purse
Show me your moral that you reversed
      C F F C
Hear me holler and hear me moan
C         F          F      C
I pay in blood, but not my own

You get your lover in the bed
Come here I`ll break your lousy head
Our nation must be saved and freed
You`ve been accused of murder, how do you plead?
      Am Dm Am
      Am Dm Am
This is how I spend my days
I came to bury, not to raise
      C F F C
I`ll drink my fill and sleep alone
C         F          F      C
I pay in blood, but not my own
