Intro:


Eb

Verse 1:

Eb
I've been working for my whole life
Eb
To get to the other side
Eb
And try to achieve true righteousness
Eb
All the scourges and whips I cracked
Eb
The flesh I ripped off my back
Eb
It only led me to emptiness

Verse 2:

Eb
Here I am a broken man
Eb
Who's done all that a man could do
Eb
And found that it's only filthy rags
Eb
Monasteries, religious schools
Eb
Intelligences, laws, and rules
                       Ab          Gb           E
It's all added up to nothing and darkness and death
  Abm      B              Gb
Vanity, heartache, and emptiness
  Ab         Gb      E
Efforts all fading away

Pre-Chorus:

                              Eb
The flesh and defeat that it brings
      E                         Gb
'Til you guide me and show me things

Chorus:

          B       E       Gb       Ab  Abm
That my eyes have never seen before
      E                     B           Gb
As I burst forth from the belly of the beast
B       E      Gb   Ab
Never fighting anymore
         E            B              Gb
For the burden on my life has been released
E               Ab  Gb   E Eb
Nail it to the do-  o-  or

Verse 3:

Eb
Nailed these 95 things I've learned
Eb
They'll say that I must be burned
Eb
For God has no place for heretics
Eb
All the things that they tried to sell
Eb
It's trickery straight from hell
Eb
To turn it into a den of thieves

Verse 4:

Eb
See these madmen peddling
Eb
the wares of dead men's souls
Eb
Collecting on a debt already paid so long ago
Eb
There's fire in my spirit
Eb
and fire in their eyes
                                       Ab  Gb  E
For now they'll want to burn me alive
     Abm  B    Gb
Yet freedom rings
         Ab      Gb     E
Unworthiness is all I bring

Pre-Chorus:

                              Eb
The blood of Christ is all I claim
     E                     Gb
This grace revealed everything

Chorus:

         B         E      Gb        Ab Abm
That my eyes have never seen before
      E                     B           Gb
As I burst forth from the belly of the beast
B       E      Gb   Ab
Never fighting anymore
         E            B              Gb
For the burden on my life has been released
E               Ab  Gb   E
Nail it to the do-  o-  or
