  			Hi guys, this is the first song I've ever uploaded, I hope you like it :p 

There are multiple possible chords for the Instrumental bit, but I thought these sounded best. 

Could be played in either standard or Eb tuning,  
If you want to play the Eb an octave lower (like in the original song). 


Intro: Bb 

Verse 

Bb (through entire verse) 
Took a lonely feeling 
Just to let the meaning 
Sink like the sun goes down 
Never close to heaven 
Felt my feet were burning from the same red hot ground 

F# 
There's blood on my hands, 
Eb 
There's blood on my hands 
Bb 
Yeah, there's blood 

Bb 
It's getting hard to listen 
When the clock is ticking 
Counting down the days gone by 
Praying for an answer to another question 
That will only leave you dry 

F# 
You won't understand 
Eb 
With your head in the sand 
Bb 
No, you won't 

Chorus 
          Db      Ab                 Bb         
But I'll kiss the ground where you kneel 
        Db      Ab         Bb 
Till I grow my hair to my heels 
Db          Ab         Bb 
Spike your water your wine 
           Db        Ab      Bb 
While you waste my precious time 

Verse 

Bb 
Every time I drink and try to stop my thinking 
Bout the things I've said and done 
Stop the world from turning faster 
Then I'm learning not to just hide and run 

F# 
You won't understand 
Eb 
With your head in the sand 
Bb 
No, you won't 

Bb                                    Bb 
Love came and went faster than a penny spent in a slot machine 
Bb                                     Bb   F     Db      Ab 
Nowhere near the devil, just somewhere in between you and me 
F#                      Eb 
Sworn to see me 

Chorus 

          Db      Ab                 Bb         
But I'll kiss the ground where you kneel 
        Db      Ab         Bb 
Till I grow my hair to my heels 
Db          Ab         Bb 
Spike your water your wine 
F# 
Yeah, there's blood on my hands, 
Eb 
There's blood on my hands 
F# 
There's blood on my hands, 
Eb 
There's blood on my hands 
Bb 
Yeah, there's blood

Outro 
Bb 
Took a lonely feeling 
Just to let the meaning 
Sink like the sun goes down 
Never close to heaven 
Felt my feet were burning from the same red hot ground
