[Intro]

Em-Dvar-C (x3)
Em

[Verse]
Em G
I was born in Carolina
C D
Raised with a heavy hand
Em G
My mother was a-pushing up daisies
C D
My father was a drinking man
Em G
The one night my beating never came
C D
I learned why when I found him in the hall
Em G
All five years of his education
C D
Splattered on the wall

Em G
So I packed my bags and I moved to the city
C D
No way to make ends meet
Em G
I found a bag of grass in a gutter
C D
And I sold it on the street
Em G
To a man who said, “You remind me of myself
C D
When I started dealin’, why don’t you come with me”
Em G
And before I’d even touched the surface
C D
I knew I was in too deep


[Chorus]
Em G C D
Now everyone I know
Em G C D
Everyone I know is gone
Em G C D
Everything I done
Em G C C D
Everything I done is wrong
G D C D
Some people call me the Sinful Healer
Em
I’m the dealer

[Bridge]
Em-Dvar-C (x3)
Em

[Verse]
Em G
The work got easier when the drugs got harder
C D
I should have known it wouldn’t last
Em G
The golden opportunity to quit came shining
C D
But I watched it turn to brass
Em G
I earned my keep from the people who would die
C D
To kill their invincible pain
Em G
As long as all the bag brides and pimps and junkies
C D
Had nothing to lose there’d be something to gain

Em G
Then all it took was one taste of my poison
C D
And that was it
Em G
And I wound up like some bloodthirsty spider
C D
Tangled up in its own web
Em G
Oh, temptation never fails
C D
But it only lets you down
Em G
And addiction has you decomposing
C D
Long before you’re in the ground


[Chorus]
Em G C D
Now everyone I know
Em G C D
Everyone I know is gone
Em G C D
Everything I done
Em G C C D
Everything I done is wrong
G D C D
Some people call me the Sinful Healer
Em Dvar C
I’m the dealer

[Bridge]
Em-Dvar-C (x2)
Em

[Verse 5]
Em G
Tonight the smokestacks in Carolina
C D
Are monuments to our glorious decay
Em G
I shiver and I shudder in the alley and I wonder
C D
How it all turned out this way
Em G
I guess I don’t blame no one, I guess that I could change
C D
But a crooked gun don’t shoot straight
Em G
Henpecking curbs for coins, I bridge the vein and pay the boy
C D
And as he turns to leave I hear him say,

[Chorus]
Em G C D
Now everyone I know
Em G C D
Everyone I know is gone
Em G C D
Everything I done
Em G C C D
Everything I done is wrong
G D C D
Some people call me the Sinful Healer
G D C D
Ah, but mine will be the face that he sees when he looks in the mirror
Em Dvar C
I’m the dealer

[Outro]
Em-D-var-C (x3)
Em
