Intro: G Em G Em
            G                      
Though I've walked down a crooked path

           Em
That don't mean that it wasn't cursed

          G
My feeble heart was filled with wrath

          Em
My poison mind with thoughts perverse

        D                     C 
And the devil is living in my basement

           D                        C
I'm trying hard to hide him from my wife

      D                              C
And I know someday I'm gonna have to face him

        D                              C
But for now I keep my secrets with the night
G D C D
     G
As I breeze through this windy city

    Em
The devil he now rides upon my back
And all the boys here look mighty pretty I need a fix and lord, I need it fast
         D                      C
I let my houseguests rest in my crawlspace
Don't let anyone tell you that I'm a bad host I take cover behind my white facepaint While I battle my bitter father's ghost G D C D C /B A C /B D "
       G
And by now the hounds have surely caught my scent

          Em
In just a short time I'm no longer free
Oh lord you know I would repent But the devil he now speaks for me
        D                    C
And the icy needle kisses my veins
As I kiss my dear sister goodbye Now as I descend into the final flames It's my turn to die G D C D C /B A C /B D (bass runs C# D# F) G C# G C# G C# G /C# /D# /F (x4) C#
