Bm F# A jester of sorts you stand holding your courts G D A/C# Over minions on Capitol Hill G Em In a bath full of blood I'm alone standing still Bm F# Bm Under God you can fire at will Chorus: Bm G When the devil's angels come D To take your life and lead you F# To the flamers beneath Bm Your headstone reads now G Here lies the dead who was D Hung by his head beneath us F# They're laying in their graves Damnation free for all A prodigal son can't undo what he's done A figurehead of capitol crime With a light shining down, as you fall to your knees To repent would be nothing but lies, one, two, three, four!
