---INTRO---
          A#A#
 slide up fret to  (barre)  V V ^ V ^

---VERSE 1---

 A#A#
 Took a lonely feeling
 A#A#
 Just to let the meaning
 A#A#
 Sink like the sun goes down
 A#A#
 Never close to heaven
 A#A#
 Felt my feet were burning from the same red hot ground

     F#F#
 There's blood on my hands,
     D#D#
 There's blood on my hands
        A#A#
 Yeah, there's blood

 A#A# (4 measures)

---VERSE 2---

 A#A#
 It's getting hard to listen
 A#A#
 When the clock is ticking
 A#A#
 Counting down the days gone by
 A#A#
 Praying for an answer to another question
 A#A#
 That will only leave you dry

   F#F#
 You won't understand
      D#D#
 With your head in the sand
     A#A#
 No, you won't

---CHORUS---

      C#C#   G#G#        A#A#
 But I'll kiss the ground where you kneel
    C#C#   G#G#     A#A#
 Till I grow my hair to my heels
 C#C#     G#G#     A#A#
 Splash your water your wine
      C#C#    G#G#    A#A#
 While you waste my precious time

 A#A#
(4 measures)

---VERSE 3---

 A#A#     [ C#C# ]      A#A#
 Every time I drink and try to stop my thinking
          [ G#G# ]
 Bout the things I've said and done
 A#A#
 Stop the world from turning faster
 A#A#
 Then I'm learning not to just hide and run

 F#F#
 You won't understand
      D#D#
 With your head in the sand
     A#A#   G#G#
 No, you won't    yeah

 A#A# A# A#A# A#  G#G#

---INTERLUDE---

 A#A#         [ G#G# ]     A#A#       [ G#G# ]
  Love came and went faster than a penny spent in a slot machine
 A#A#                    A#A#  F#F#  C#C#   G#G#
  Nowhere near the devil, just somewhere in between you and me
 F#F#      D#D#
 Sworn to see   me

---CHORUS---

     C#C#    G#G#        A#A#
 But I'll kiss the ground where you kneel
 G#G#   C#C#   G#G#     A#A#
 Till I grow my hair to my heels
 C#C#     G#G#     A#A#
 Spike your water your wine
 D#D#       F#F#
 Yeah, there's blood on my hands,
     D#D#
 There's blood on my hands
     F#F#
 There's blood on my hands,
     D#D#
 There's blood on my hands
        A#A#
 Yeah, there's blood
