1 : 26 – 1 : 58

Dadd9/F# Em7 Dadd9/F# Em7
the jesuits rolled in their tanks to my front door

Dadd9/F# Em7 Dadd9/F# Em7
while the capuchins held a love – in on my front porch

Dadd9/F# Em7 Dadd9/F# Em7
the augustinians kept to themselves , stuck their tongues out in a row

Dadd9/F# Em7 Dadd9/F# Em7
they said , “devil boy , it’s off to hell you go!”

and so i’ll sit and pray for her to call me there

Dadd9/F# Em7 Dadd9/F# Em7
and i’ll burn that bridge A 1000 times , on the cross i bear

Dadd9/F# Em7 Dadd9/F# Em7
just to wonder if you’re listening from a soap box in the sky

Dadd9/F# Em7 Dadd9/F# Em7
to finally realize my price , was it you or i?
