     E
Been waitin' at these crossroads

Forever and a day

On a guy to buy my soul

I spend all night and day

How much harder can I play?

Mama begged me please

         G
Yes, she got down on her knees

              D                        E
Said, "you'll burn in that Mississippi sun"

            E
But I'm the only one that's standing here

   G
So mama, don't you have no fear

E
Standin' at the crossroads

  G
A dried up pen in hand

    D                      E
The conversation went like this:

E
"Tell me your desire,

        G
Why you pulled me from the fire,

          D                    E
And we'll seal the deal with a kiss."

       E
Said I wanna raise the dead

       G
Find a note that I can shred

      D                E
On my walls I scrawl my gods

                E
Don't care what happens when I die

   G
As long as I'm alive

D                 E
All I wanna do is rock, rock, rock
[Chorus]
E       D
Take me down
