Standard (EADGBE)

I've been sinning

I've been livin'

I've been beaten

By Saturdays

On a diamond

I lay on a diamond

On a diamond

I lay awake

'Artagnan

Good ol' D'Artagnan

He ain't got a thing on me

I've been minding

To my field of timing

Too bad your time in

It just never came

Chorus

Well I don't know how else to say it

In a diffrent way

But why don't you just fade away

'Cause there's a battle going on

Down south of Babylon

So why don't you just fade away

I've been dealing

I've been healing

I've been dealing

A crooked game

Thieving pirates

I'm thieving pirates

Out of gold

That they stole from the queen

Stole from a man

Whose favorite hand

Is one that he will always land

Well I'm building

Us a levee

By the Mississippi

For I'll die in an unmarked grave

Repeat Chorus til end
