Dot King was whittled from the bone of Cain
Am                                  Em
with a little drop of poison in the red, red blood
Am       Em         Am           Em
She need a way to turn around the bend
Am
She said I want to walk away and start over again.

          Am     Em     Am     Em
There are things I've done I can't erase
Am                                Em
I want to look in the mirror, see another face
       Am    Em    Am     Em

Am
I want to walk away, start over again.


Dm      Am
No more rain
Em      Am
No more roses
Dm    Am   C                    Em
On my way, shake my thirst in a cool, cool pond.

There is a heart that's beating in every page

The beginning of it starts at the end

When it's time to walk away and start over again.

Dm      Am
No more rain
Em      Am
No more roses
Dm    Am   C                    Em
On my way, shake my thirst in a cool, cool pond.
