[Verse]
G        D    C   A
Down so long now Jesus
C         D            A
You know I been down so long
G     D     C        A
Far turned out and freezing
C         D             A
Won't you carry my body home


[Chorus]
B
This is why I came
Bb
To live a life in a day
N.C.
With a fire in my head


[Verse]
G      D       C           A
Who's got the keys to the workhouse?
C          D            A
Satan has locked the door
G       D        C   A
Got no wings to take us
C               D          A
Up off of that killing floor


[Chorus]
B
Is this why you came?
Bb
To handle a snake
N.C.
And wear a new starry crown


[Verse]
G            D    C      A
There's no phoenix rising
C            D           A
To a mansion up on the hill
G      D            C    A
This albatross I'm riding
C                 D          A
Is a train just standing still


[Chorus]
B
This is how I came
Bb
With a stench and a stain
N.C.
To be washed in the blood
