C
The first time I saw you
                C
It happened so fast
                        A#
I didn't turn the other way
                            F
Although I never stood a chance
                           C
You said "don't waste your life
                      C
with your head in the sand"
                           A#
You said "don't waste your time son
N.C.
on a fool's errand."

[Verse 1]
                  C
Well in this life
                     C
The rules you live by
            A#
It makes no difference son
                 F
When it's do or die
                     C
Oh your stone's been weighed
             C
The dye is cast
               A#
Your crow has come
                F
Judgement is passed, yeah

[Chorus]
C       A#      F             D#
But you can't deny the accusations
C       A#      F             D#
When you got the red-stained hand
C    A#      F                D#
This life is one of temptation
C    A#     F                 D#
Best walk away while you can
C                          F
You can't live your life no
D#                         F 
With your head in the sand
C       
You can't waste your time son
A#      F          C
On a fool's errand yeah
C       F          C
On a fool's errand

[Verse 2]
                C
Enough money to drown in
                C
Enough rope to hang
                      A#
Troubles the way I'm living child
                F
But it ain't no thing
                  C
I'll educate you boy
                     C
I'll show you how to be
              A#
To never want nothing son
                  F
And take all you need yeah

[Chorus]
C       A#      F             D#
But you can't deny the accusations
C       A#      F             D#
When you got the red-stained hand
C    A#      F                D#
This life is one of temptation
C    A#     F                 D#
Best walk away while you can
C                          F
You can't live your life no
D#                         F 
With your head in the sand
C       
You can't waste your time son
A#      F          C
On a fool's errand yeah
C       F          C
On a fool's errand

[Bridge]
C
Well this life, it's a dead end street
C
Cold dark and lonely, straight fucking mean
C
A race to the end, whoever gets there last
C                       A#        F
Suffers from the sorrow of losing all they had
