Hide in a hole with a gun in your hand in front of someone you want dead

                        C5C5               D5D5
I got my head in-, I got my head in-, it’s just something that you do to get it right
     C5C5              D5D5
End up reviled for it, yeah that's the thanks I get

A#A#          C majorC
Jail, that's what you get

Stepping to the system, profiting from war

Fighting as the victim, always wanting more

Trying to trick your brothers, get them to fight it for ya

I cannot believe my eyes

Coast to coast, L.A. to Chicago
DmDm
I don't know geography all that well

Defying Western logic, even if it shows you’re wrong
