[verse 1]
          Em            G C B
I'm gonna fight 'em off
               Em            G       C    B
a seven nation army couldn't hold me back
              Em         G C
They're gonna rip it off
B            Em           G       C    B
Taking their time right behind my back
        Em           G       C
And I'm talking to myself at night
          B        Em  G C B
Because I can't forget
Em             G          C
Back and forth through my mind
         B   Em    G C B
Behind a cigarette
      G
And a message coming from my
 A
eyes says leave it alone

[verse 2]
          Em               G C
Don't want to hear about it
B             Em          G       C   B
Every single one's got a story to tell
          Em            G C
Everyone knows about it
B              Em
From the Queen of England to
    G          C   B
the hounds of Hell
          Em            G C
And if I catch it coming back my way
       B                Em  G  C  B
I'm gonna serve it to you
          Em            G C
And that ain't what you want to hear
           B          Em  G   C   B
But that's what I'll do
      G
And a feeling coming from my
A
bones says find a home

[verse 3]
          Em            G C
I'm going to Wichita
B              Em          G       C  B
Far from this opera, forever more
             Em            G C
I'm going to work the straw
B              Em          G       C  B
Make the sweat drip out of every pore
          Em             G
And I'm bleeding and I'm bleeding
        C
and I'm bleeding
        B         Em   G C B
Right before my Lord
        Em                 G            C
All the words are going to bleed from me
           B            Em   G  C  B
And I will think no more
        G
And the stains coming from my
 A
blood tell me go back home
