C majorC
When the chips are down,
And you're blinded on your feet,
FF
You're standing up and walking,
But you know you are dead meat.
C majorC
The sky is busting,
It's near the break of day,
FF
You're running out options,
Running out of place.
A minorAm
The leaves are cracking,
Withered on the trees,
FF
Beg you darling,
Won’t you say a prayer for me,
A minorAm
I need your benediction,
'Cause I’m a soul in need,
FF
I can’t sit down much lower,
G+G
'Cause I'm on my knees.

You are the sharpest knife,
You are the finest blade,

Dripping honeyfrom your tongue,

But you never know what’s going on,
When the day is done.
A minorAm
There is a sadness,
Just grinding in your bones,
FF
A augmentedA twisted trap down which you're forced to go,

I'll show you down the path.
