It’s the wake of all e-vil 
Dadd11 
A universal mess

I’ve always found trouble

Even at my best

Anxiety and sor-row

Underneath my skin

Self-destruction and failure 
G                 Dadd11  
Have beat my head in 
G                  Dadd11 
I laughed out loud once 
G                  Dadd11 
I won’t do that again 
G                         Dadd11 
Always traveled the hell fire road

To chase the sweet smell of sin

So many things

Have fallen through my hands 
C       C/B       D 
I am a troubled man 

verse 3 

Dadd11                 G    Dadd11 
People up on the east side 
Dadd11 
People on the gravel road 
G                 Dadd11 
People of many colors 
G                            Dadd11 
Whose stories will never be told 
G                     Dadd11 
Too late came too early  
G                 Dadd11 
for me to face myself 
C       C/B      D 
I am a troubled man 

D          G     D 
I am a troubled man 
D          G     D 
I am a troubled man, oh Lord 
D              A 
I won’t do anything  
    G              D 
but hurt you if I can 
C       C/B      D 
I am a troubled man
