Bm

        Bm
I got a coin in my palm;
      D
I can make it disappear
        Bm
I got a card up my sleeve;
                 D
name it and I'll pull it out your ear
        A
I got a rabbit in my hat;
       Bm
if you wanna come and see
D       A         Bm
This is what will be,
D       A         Bm
this is what will be

      Bm
I got shackles on my wrists;
          D
soon I'll slip 'em and I'll be gone
              Bm
Chain me in a box in the river;
         D
and I'll rise singing this song
      A
Trust none of what you hear;
    Bm
and less of what you see
D       A         Bm
This is what will be,
D       A         Bm
this is what will be

Bm D Bm D A Bm (I'll cut you in half)

D A Bm 2x

        Bm
I got a shiny saw blade, (a shiny saw blade)
      D
all I need's a volunteer
Bm
I'll cut you in half;
             A
while you're smiling ear to ear
        Bm
And the freedom that you saw;
                D
drifting like a ghost in both the trees
D       A         Bm
This is what will be,
D       A         Bm
this is what will be

              Bm
Now there's a fire down below;
         D
but it's coming up here
         Bm
So leave everything you know;
      D
carry only what you fear
                A
On the road the sun is sinking low;
               Bm
there's bodies hanging in the trees
D       A         Bm
This is what will be,
D       A         Bm
this is what will be
