Gm Gm Eb Cm
Gm Gm Eb Cm
[Verse]
Gm I was out here playin' devilish games Gm So it's only right I ended up set up in flames Eb I'm a grown man so I'll never complain Cm I'm addicted to pain and bein' left in the rain Gm I just sit and think about what I never became Gm I pray everyday that I'm ready to change Eb They say once it's bad that it's never the same Cm It's like my car broke down on memory lane Gm I can't wait 'til I face all the critics Gm Eb That ain't never had to face the decisions that I had Cm To know if they had made the same ones shut the fuck up, You don't get paid to hate for a livin' Gm It's so easy to point your finger and judge Gm Hop in the pig pen and get to swingin' the mud Eb Everything that we was, everything we've become Cm Every war that we won, everything that I've done (ha) Gm Ha, Lord can you hear my prayer Gm It's somethin' 'bout the city I can feel I swear Eb I'm on my way God 'cause you're really there Cm Alabama to Mississippi, now I'm almost there Cm Before I felt your presence I was almost scared Gm A trade with the Devil I was almost shared Eb Now I'm headed to the delta where no one cares Cm Where our souls are buried and loneliness is shared
[Chorus]
Gm Gm In the darkness where the heartless and demons scream Eb Cm Gm Been tryin' to come clean, but it ain't what it seems Gm Eb I found a nightmare in my dreams, Cm Down in New Orleans Gm Gm The darkness where the heartless and demons scream Eb Cm Gm Been tryin' to come clean, but it ain't what it seems Gm Eb I found a nightmare in my dreams, Cm Down in New Orleans
[Verse]
Gm Heard a rumor they was comin' for me Gm Saw a glimpse into the future I was smilin' countin' blood money Eb Walkin' down the dark alley street lights flickerin' Cm Everything around me seemed so different Gm Gm Figurin' I must be lost, bad feelin' in my gut I gotta dust it off Eb I got a chip on my shoulder better brush it off Cm I keep reachin' for the gun havin' crazy thoughts Gm I heard a mother cryin' tears fallen from her old eyes Gm Eb Pedal drops as a rose dies, see it clear with closed eyes Cm Gunshot then the crow flies, night fall and the smoke rise Gm Couldn't see the beauty inside all of the darkness Gm Vengeance and love I get confused with being heartless Eb Heartless cross me out for a couple dollars Cm Runnin' with the Devil and wonder what trouble follows Cm Gm Standin' in the street, surrounded by my past Eb Every sin I ever committed, is takin' me at last, Saw karma's face in a black hoodie Cm With some gold teeth, and heard the police Cm Heard a loud scream
N.C.
Seen the barrel flash
Gm Felt the sharp pain and now I can't breath Eb Woke up from a dream in New Orleans Cm Put my hands up as the choir sings
[Chorus]
Gm Gm In the darkness where the heartless and demons scream Eb Cm Gm Been tryin' to come clean, but it ain't what it seems Gm Eb I found a nightmare in my dreams, Cm Down in New Orleans Gm Gm The darkness where the heartless and demons scream Eb Cm Gm Been tryin' to come clean, but it ain't what it seems Gm Eb I found a nightmare in my dreams, Cm Down in New Orleans
