To light an effigy outside your gates,  
     G                                 Cm

Is it such a sin to indulge? 
  G 
My wicked ways won't flaunt your woes,

You haters go hating cause I've got the patience  
      G 
And a song I can sing at your wake,

Keep screaming punk I'll bet this chainsaw can cut through

Whoops! I guess I should have known better
