Today I Was An Evil One From The Album I See A Darkness by Bonnie “Prince” Billy [Intro] C C [Verse 1]
Gm                    F
Tonight my eyes were hurting much

Gm                        F
  As I had strained them all day long

Gm                 F
  I don't remember waking up

Gm              F
  My memory is not that strong

Gm                      F
  The day was spent walking about

Gm                     F
  And asking questions blindly

Gm                     F
  And silently and not without

Gm                     F
  A sense of lapsing dignity
G7 [Chorus]
C
Today I was an evil one

     F
Who suffered dumbly having fun

G
  Tomorrow god will make me good

   F
If I allow her to, she would
C [Verse 2]
Gm            F
  I was found again in need

Gm                F
  And mostly unprotected

Gm                     F
  As I had spent good time with greed

Gm               F
  And giving was rejected
G7 [Chorus]
C
Today I was an evil one

     F
Who suffered dumbly having fun

G
Tomorrow god will make me good

   F
If I allow her to, she would
C [Bridge]
Am                 G
The skin of all my fingers split

Am              G
  Painfully receding

   Am                 G
My hands were dry and itched and hurt

Am                     G
  And also they were bleeding

Gm                F
  I can fix it by withdrawing

Gm                F
  Claim from false completeness

Gm                F
  And by humboly allowing

Gm                F
  God to grant me sweetness
[Outro] Gm F Gm F Gm F Gm F
