Beggars Guild

Intro:
Em      G       D       C    (x2)

   Em                 G
Oh put it on, take it off real quick
       D                       C
on the bottom of the pile, I’m feelin sick.
   Em                           G
It never cross my mind, That my baby lied, no-
   D                       C
To keep me in the beggar’s guild.


    Em                   G
So I sleep all day and I dream all night
         D                            C
with the bottle in my hand I take the devil’s side.
  Em                     G
I smile real big just to keep it hid
        D                            C
oh, the truth about my lack of will.

    Em                      G
Oh I run like hell from the city’s glow
          D                           C
I lose my name, I pass and forget the folks I used to know.
     Em                   G
If I go far away from the city gates
        D                       C
and the long reach of the government.

   Em             G
Oh all alone in a cold north scene,
       D                      C
in the blue sky above a plane flew over me.
    Em                     G
The banner it pulled said “you were a fool,”
         D                       C
“did you really think you’d ever win?”

    D                             C
I’m taking off my dirty skin.
         D                        C
There is nothing to refute my sin.

  Am    G       C
I fear  no      one
  Am    G       C       D
I fear  no      one but you.
       Am       G       C
(Don’t care…    no      no )
  Am    G        C        D
I lie   only to  tell the truth.
(No)

Em  (x2)

         Em                   G
Well the steep demands of the higher call
       D                         C
Oh you pawn off the world so the cars won’t stall.
     Em                       G
I'll burn my clothes and I'll gut my soul
       D                     C
and pretend that I was never born (ayyyyah yeah).

   Em                  G
Oh my oh my, look what you have done
           D                                     C
Split your head out on the floor like you’re the chosen one.
  Em                        G
I gave her my heart but she wanted no part
     D                     C
so I sold it to an antique store.

    Em                        G
So I dug a hole four thousand miles down
       D                                C
To the center of the Earth where I will not be found.
Em                           G
Memories of the moon singing see you soon,
             D                     C
Though I was always partial to the sun.

     Em                G
I was picked up by two men of the law
                D                            C
They said we’re taking you downtown, forget about your call.
Em                    G
Hell’s no place for a wandering face
   D                     C
Go take it up with Beelzebub.

    D                              C
You laugh as you pull out the rug
      D                           C
I was never really much in love.

  Am    G       C
I fear  no      one
  Am    G       C       D
I fear  no      one but you.
       Am       G       C
(Don’t care…    no      no )
  Am    G        C        D
I lie   only to  tell the truth.
(No...)
