There you go again,

and for me to find out.

All that trouble, and you on about.
Em                           G            A
How you gonna know, til you hear it out loud.

Your song came along,
                                      G
and I heard the voices telling me to save yourself,
        A
I'll behave yourself.

I stop, ask myself: "What can I do?
What can I do to preserve you?"
Go on, tell me now, what can I do?
What can I do to conserve you?
Your name, urethane
I can see the writing on the wall
Come on, flip a coin
Bet it's gonna tell you
To "save yourself, oh, behave yourself"

F#m                                            A
Your man, channelin', knowin' by the x on his hand
F#m
You raise, runaways singin' at the gate,
    G                     A
to save yourself, I'll behave yourself.

putting words into your mouth.

This one's for me to know,
G               A

how you gonna know, til you hear it out loud.
Bm                A#
All of your heroes, where are they now?

I'm lost, deliver me,
I crossed the river finally.
God as my witness,
yeah it's gonna heal my soul tonight.
God as my witness,
yeah it's gonna heal my soul tonight.
God as my witness,
yeah it's gonna heal my soul tonight.

God as my witness,
yeah you gonna heal my soul tonight.
God as my witness,
yeah you gonna heal my soul tonight.
