Am
Temptation hides

F
In the space between

Am
Lord, help me fight

This desire for fire

Words can cleanse and purify

F
Or tear down a pack of lies

Am
In your presence, consequence

F
I can't stop trembling
Chorus (0:53)
Am                 C
For all of my virtue

         F                 G 
Why can I not hold the truth?

Am                F     
For all my good fortune

                           G
I would change my place with you

Am               C
This path will lead us back

         F             G
Will lead us back to ruin

For all of my virtue

Why can I not hold the truth?

Verse (1:53)
Am
Once in a while

F
The urge resurfaces

Am
So we split hairs

                F
As rumours circulate

Am
And there's a need to fertilise

F
Behind my lover's trusting eye

Am
Like water drops on burning warts

F                G
I can't stop trembling
Chorus (2:23)
Am               C
For all of my virtue

Why can I not hold the truth?

Am                C    
For all my good fortune

            F                D
I would change my place with you

Am               C
This path will lead us back

         F             D
Will lead us back to ruin

Am           C
For all of my virtue

        F               D
Why can I not hold the truth?
