Verse 1
C F
How miserable I am
C
I feel like a fruit-picker who arrives after the harvest
F
There's nothing here at all
Am
Nothing at all here that could placate my hunger
C F
The godly people are all gone
C
There's not one honest soul left here on the planet
F
We're all murderers and thieves
Am
Setting traps here for even our brothers

Chorus 1
Gsus2 F
And both of our hands
C
Are equally skilled
Gsus2 F
At doing evil
C
Equally skilled
Gsus2 F
At bribing the judges
C
Equally skilled
Gsus2 F
At perverting justice
Gsus2
Both of our hands
C
Both of our hands

Verse 2
C F
The day of justice comes
C
And is even now swiftly arriving
F
Don't trust anyone at all
Am
Not your best friend or even your wife
C F
For the son hates the father
C
The daughter despises even her mother
F
Look Your enemies are right
Am
Right in the room of your very household

Chorus 1

Interlude
Same as Intro

Bridge
D Gsus2
No, don't gloat over me

For though I fall, though I fall
D Dsus2 D
I will rise again
Gsus2
Though I sit here in darkness

The Lord, the Lord alone
Bm Riff
He will be my light
Asus4 Gsus2
I will be patient as the Lord
D
Punishes me for the wrongs I've done against Him
Gsus2
After that He'll take my case

Bringing me to light and to justice
Bm
For all I have suffered

Chorus 2
Asus4 Gsus2
And both of His hands
D
Are equally skilled
Asus4 Gsus2
At ruining evil
D
Equally skilled
Asus4 Gsus2
At judging the judges
D
Equally skilled
Asus4 Gsus2
Administering justice
Asus4
Both of His hands
Gsus2
Both of His hands

Chorus 3
D
Are equally skilled
Asus4 Gsus2
At showing me mercy
Bm
Equally skilled

At loving the loveless
D
Equally skilled

Administering justice
Asus4
Both of His hands

Both of His hands
