Em Do you mean this horny creep Set upon weary feet Who looks in need of sleep That doesn't come? This twisted, tortured mess This bed of sinfulness Who's longing for some rest And feeling numb Em What do you expect of me? What is it you want? Whatever you've planned for me A G F I'm not the one A vicious appetite Visits me each night And won't be satisfied Won't be denied An unbearable pain A beating in my brain That leaves the mark of Cain Right here inside What am I supposed to do When everything that I've done Is leading me to conclude I'm not the one? Chorus: Em A G F Whatever I've done F C B I've been staring down the barrel of a gun Em A G F Whatever I've done F C B I've been staring down the barrel of a gun Em A G F Whatever I've done (Whatever, whatever) Is there something you need from me? Are you having your fun? I never agreed to be Your holy one Chorus: Whatever I've done I've been staring down the barrel of a gun Whatever I've done (Whatever, whatever) I've been staring down the barrel of a gun Whatever I've done (Whatever, whatever) I've been staring down the barrel of a gun You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA C Em F G B Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
