intro:  F#5 C#5 E5 D#5
    then:  C#5/D5 B5/C5

  verse:  F#5 B5 F#5 B5  (he's got a dull...)

  chorus:  C#5 A5 E5   (the dull knife cuts so...)

he's got a dull knife and it waits for me
he's got a dull knife in a place i cannot see
he'll take my life from me
he'll take it oh, so slowly, i cant believe

 the dull knife cuts so deep
                      yeah
 makes my kind bleed
                      yeah

i've got no time for laying down
i've got no time for worrying about sacred ground
dont take my crown from me
i put it on when you would not see



  while intro plays...

the pressures off you see
the pressure that comes with uncertainty
he'll take my life from me
he'll take it oh so slowly
