(Verse)
B minorBm     A augmentedA     B minorBm
Mother, you taught me good,
      B minorBm       A augmentedA       B minorBm
you made me want to do the things that I should,
      B minorBm         A augmentedA     B minorBm
you told me Jesus's gonna make me a saint,
       B minorBm        A augmentedA    B minorBm
gonna take my hand and make my life complete

(Chorus)
    G+G       A augmentedA    B minorBm
but the narrow path is closing in
         G+G       A augmentedA   B minorBm
sometimes I think I'm too fat to fit on it
     G+G             A augmentedA      B minorBm
when the curtains close because the clouds roll in
       E MajorE
its taking me right back down
C majorC     G+G
right back down
G+G   A augmentedA  E minorEm     A augmentedA    E minorEm
right back down to the same dungeon

B minorBm  A augmentedA  B minorBm (x2)

(Verse)
     B minorBm           A augmentedA    B minorBm
When the cold heartedness of the ghost of the beast
  B minorBm          A augmentedA    B minorBm
is beating on you like a state police
    B minorBm          A augmentedA      B minorBm
and the only friends that you make are the ones
   B minorBm           A augmentedA    G+G
that take take take and they take take take and they
A augmentedA    B minorBm  A augmentedA  B minorBm
got big guns

B minorBm  A augmentedA  B minorBm
If I had a mind
        B minorBm  A augmentedA  B minorBm
sharper than a needle
         B minorBm  A augmentedA  B minorBm
I'd reinvent the wheel

(Bridge)

and take us all
G+G          A augmentedA
home, where we would know that we've got
E MajorE     G+G         A augmentedA
windows to close when it gets cold
         B minorBm  A augmentedA  B minorBm
but I ain't got no    (x4)

(Chorus)
    G+G       A augmentedA   B minorBm
but the narrow path is closing in
         G+G       A augmentedA   B minorBm
sometimes I think I'm too fat to fit on it
     G+G             A augmentedA     B minorBm
when the curtains close because the clouds roll in
       E MajorE
its taking me right back down
C majorC     G+G
right back down
G+G   A augmentedA  E minorEm     A augmentedA    E minorEm
right back down to the same dungeon
    A augmentedA    E minorEm
to the same dungeon (x2)
    A augmentedA    B minorBm  A augmentedA  B minorBm
to the same dungeon

B minorBm  A5A5  B minorBm (x3)

E minorEm
