SOLO

D MajorD          E minorEm
Some kind of savior singing the blues
G+G          D MajorD
A augmentedA derelict in your duct tape shoes

Your orphan clothes and your long dark hair
E minorEm        G+G
Looking like you didn't care
    D MajorD
Druken Angel
D MajorD             E minorEm
Blood spilled out from the hole in your heart
G+G          D MajorD
Over the strings of your guitar
E minorEm          G+G
The worn down places in the wood
E minorEm         G+G
That once made you feel so good
