MARK LANEGAN - DEATH'S HEAD TATTOO Album version - GARGOYLE INTRO: Bm VERSE ONE: Bm Wild thing Bm See the monkey in the jungle swing Bm Canary in the cavern sing F# That the devil lives in anything Bm C'mon people Bm You know that I ain't got the wherewithal Bm When California starts to crawl F# Makes a poor man leave his home
CHORUS: Bm And if I cry for you baby Bm Your death's head tattoo made me G Pray for the last one standing G Holding a loaded gun Bm F# D E Bm I can see her there under the golden sun VERSE TWO: Bm Wild thing Bm See the man up on the gallows swing Bm See the creature walking through the weeds F# In a garden grown from evil seeds Bm C'mon people Bm You know I can't afford to reconcile Bm When California starts to crawl F# Makes a poor child leave its home CHORUS: Bm And if I cry for you baby Bm Your death's head tattoo made me G Pray for the last one standing G Holding a loaded gun Bm G F# I can see her there under the golden sun BRIDGE: F# B Better the devil you know F# B Than the one that you don't F# B Better the devil you know F# B Than the one that you don't VERSE THREE: Bm C'mon people Bm You know that I ain't got the wherewithal Bm When California starts to crawl F# Makes a poor man leave his home CHORUS: Bm And if I cry for you baby Bm Your death's head tattoo made me G Pray for the last one standing G Holding a loaded gun Bm G F# Em Bm I can see her there under the golden sun
