[VERSE]Em C F#m B7
Took me years to make my motives clear
Em C F#m B7
And the days have not been kind
Em C F#m B7
Once a steady gaze and charming smile
Em C F#m B7
Has been buried in the lines I find
Em C F#m B7
I walk in the noise, quiet employs
Em C F#m B7
And darkness seems to know just where I am
[CHORUS]
C Am E E
mother wash the devil from my hands
C Am E E
Pray the Lord I have the strength to stand
C Am E E
mother, tell me was it all a lie?
C Am
Show me where the angels die
[VERSE]
Em C F#m B7
There are words that never found my lips
Em C F#m B7
There are words I'd soon forget
Em C F#m B7
Thought the trick was never to look back
Em C F#m B7
But it seems I've lost my grip, I slip
Em C F#m B7
The faster we run now, the closer the gun now
Em C F#m B7
And somehow all the bullets bear my name
[CHORUS]
C Am E E
mother wash the devil from my hands
C Am E E
Pray the Lord I have the strength to stand
C Am E E
mother, tell me was it all a lie?
C Am E E
Show me where the angels die
[SOLO]

[VERSE]
Em C F#m B7
Took the road but should have chased the stars
Em C F#m B7
Now I've lost my own way home
Em C F#m B7
Had a photo of the time we shared
Em C F#m B7
But I burned it long ago, I know
Em C F#m B7
I struck the matches stuck in the ashes
Em C F#m B7
Forgive me, won't you simply speak my name
[CHORUS]
C Am E E
mother wash the devil from my hands
C Am E E
Pray the Lord I have the strength to stand
C Am E E
mother, tell me was it all a lie?
C Am E E
Show me where the angels die
