Verse 1
Cover me (G major) in mud and leaves (C major)
I won't (D major) be the one to fail (C major) you
I'm a thou (G major) sand gargoyles stand
(C major) ing by your win (D major) dow (C major)
To be sure (G major) there ain't no cure (C major)
There could (D major) be no one to save (C major) you
When the bad (G major) boys come
to do (C major) you in (D major) again (C major)
So when they (D major) tell you things that
(C major) you don't want to (G major) know
Or take you (D major) back to places (C major) you
don't want to (G major) go
You've got to (D major) bury (C major) that knife
Keep your (D major) face in (C major) the light
Because there's (E minor) one thing
that (D major) they can (C major) not do
Is take from (G major) you what you
keep (D major) in mud (C major) and leaves
(G major)

And if you (C major) walk, walk away,
Save yourself,
you've got something to lose (G major) (D major)

Verse 3
There's a man (G major) in your hand (C major)
(G major) And he's got (D major) nothing good to sell (C major) you
And he's (G major) smashing a violin
(C major) against your (D major) bed (C major)
To be sure (G major) there ain't no cure (C major)
He comes (D major) creeping back to beg (C major) you
As thou (G major) sand gargoyles
crash (C major) into his (D major) head (C major)
And then that (D major) feeling comes you've
(C major) been here once be (G major) fore
That wicked (D major) feeling you don't
(C major) want to feel no (G major) more
You've got to (D major) bury (C major) that knife
That you keep (D major) stuck in (C major) your side
Before they (E minor) dig that (D major) knife in (C major) to you
And break into (G major) what you
keep (D major) out of (C major) their reach
(G major)
Verse 4
(D major) And (G major) if you (C major) walk, walk away, save yourself,
you've got nothing (D major) to prove (G major) (D major)
And if you (C major) give what they take,
you can bet they will take it from you (G major) (D major)
You're not the same (E minor) as
the day (D major) that you came (C major)
You can choose (E minor) dignity (D major) or shame (C major)
You've got to (E minor) carry your heart (D major)
like a torch (C major) in the night
(G major) Little keep (C major) er of light (G major) burning deep,
(C major) burning bright (G major) in the dark
