        And Danced On The Rope When The Gallows Fell

        Their Demons Are Still With Us

        And They Ride At Night To Get Us 
                 G         D          C 
        From The Owl Whoot Trails The Shades 
                 D             G 
        Come The Rhymes Of The Renegades 
            D 
        And Could It Be True That Some Become Outlaws 
                G 
        Holdin' On To The Last To A Long Lost Cause 
        D 
        Diggin' Their Grave With A Silver Spade 
                C          D             G 
        Singing Hymes And Rhymes To The Renegades

        They Turn Their Backs 'Till The Movie Deal's Made 
        C           D             G 
        Deaf To The Rhymes Of The Renegades 
                D 
        They'll Burn Down Up To Heaven And Stay... 
                  G 
        Cause The Raid Out Laws On the Churches And Banks... 
             D 
        They Enforce The Laws That Where Tailor Made 
                   C        D             G 
        They Won't Hear The Rhymes Of The Renegades 
             D 
        They Ignore The Dark Side Of Humanity 
                G 
        They're Living The Illusion That Were All Free 
                D 
        They'll Never Know How Many Could Be Saved 
                 C               D      NC       G 
        From The Lessons And The Rhymes Of The Renegades
