C
I've been sinning
             F
I've been livin'
             G
I've been beaten
            C  G
By Saturdays

          C
On a diamond
              F
I lay on a diamond
         G
On a diamond
         C G
I lay awake

       C
D'Artagnan
              F
Good ol' D'Artagnan
       G               C  G
He ain't got a thing on me

             C
I've been minding
                 F
To my field of timing
                  G
Too bad your time in
                C
It just never came

CHORUS
        C
Well I don't know how else to say it
        F
In a diffrent way
             G                  C
But why don't you just fade away
                 C
'Cause there's a battle going on
         F
Down south of Babylon
             G                 C G
So why don't you just fade away
             

             C
I've been dealing
             F
I've been healing
             G       
I've been dealing
             C  G
A crooked game

            C
Thieving pirates
              F
I'm thieving pirates
        G
Out of gold
                           C  G
That they stole from the queen
     
              C
Stole from a man
                 F
Whose favorite hand
            G               C  G
Is one that he will always land
              C
Well I'm building 
       F
Us a levee
             G
By the Mississippi
                               C  G
For I'll die in an unmarked grave
