Dm
Verse 1:
Dm
Easy there, old man
F6 Bdim
I'll drop you where you stand
C Asus4 Dm
You wear wings of white but I smell your hellfire
F6 Bdim
Cause I know you are a racist and a coward
C Asus4 Dm
And all you've got to show for life is dust
Dm
Cause you lay roses on the ground
F6 Bdim
And turn lies to common wisdom
C Asus4
You're a good man when it suits you
Dm
Yes I know
Dm
But whatever good you've done
F6 Bdim
Is dwarfed by mountains made of wrong
C Asus4 Dm
And your savior may forgive you but I won't
C Asus4
Oh, but somebody loves you
Dm
I guess they don't know better
C Asus4
There's a fool for every fool
Dm
And somebody loves you
C Asus4
Oh, yeah somebody loves you
Dm
And how can it be true?
C Asus4
Fool for every fool
Dm
And somebody loves you
Verse 2:
Dm F6 Bdim
It was from you I learned some men can not be trusted and
C Asus4 Dm
from you I learned some friends do not inspire
Dm
Cause you were like my brother
F6 Bdim
But you filled my heart with anger
C Asus4 Dm
And I'll thank you when those lessons have helped at all
Dm F6 Bdim
Oh your stories gave me life and they flowed through me like wine
C Asus4 Dm
But they were darkest pitch-black arrows to my soul
Dm F6 Bdim
Yes, I was your true believer now my bones do shake and shiver
C Asus4 Dm
With a poison that does rot me to the core
C Asus4
Oh, but I did once love you
Dm
I guess I knew no better
C Asus4
Yes I was once that fool
Dm
And I did love you
C Asus4
Oh, yes I did once love you
Dm
And how can it be true?
C Asus4
I was once that fool
Dm
And I did love you
Verse 2:
Dm F6 Bdim
And like some ghastly phantom voice, lifelong companion
C Asus4 Dm
Or a devil on left shoulder, lashing tongue
Dm F6
I spit crescent, spite filled language like some drunkard
Bdim C Asus4 Dm
To the heavens, when to hell he knows his spirits surely bound
Dm F6 Bdim
Yes, I lay roses on the ground and deceive you beyond wisdom
C Asus4 Dm
There's a good man in the shadows, so I'm told
Dm
But whatever good I've done
F6 Bdim
Is dwarfed by mountains made of wrong
C Asus4 Dm
And that truth comes cold to blacken out the sun
C Asus4
Oh, but somebody loves me
Dm
I guess they don't know better
C Asus4
There's a fool for every fool
Dm
And somebody loves me
C Asus4
Oh, yeah somebody loves me
Dm
And how can it be true?
C Asus4
That somebody loves me
Dm
Somebody loves you
