Intro1: | Bb ||: C Bb :|| (repeat 7 times)
Note: C = 3 beats, Bb = 1 beat
guitar solo over above
Intro 2: ||: Eb | Bb Ab | Gsus4 | G :|| G |
Verse1: Eb
Your enemies guard cornered you in a yard
Bb
You paid him off and ran
Eb Ab
You knew he'd understand
Eb Bb Eb
He's just a workin man
(Eb)
But you think he's a fool just a capitalist tool
Bb
Who plays the games of life to tie
Eb Ab
If the tables had been turned tonight
Eb Bb Eb
There'd be nothin that his money could buy - but soon...
Chorus: C G Am F
The trap door gives in under the wicked weight of sin
C G C G
You fall down, down, down farther than you've ever been
C G Am F
Yeah, the trap door falls open just as you were smugly hoping
C G C
That you could cheat and win, the trap door falls in
Verse2: Eb Bb
So one escape does not a life make the earth floats under your feet
Eb Ab
You can't trust who you meet
Eb Bb Eb
Your bravery's a conceit
Eb
It's no longer suspense it's a fear that makes sense
Bb
Pullin you through the ground
Eb Ab
The trap door makes no sound
Eb Bb Eb
One day just not around - Cause...
(Chorus)
(Intro2)
Verse3: Eb
I should have known when I was struck with a stone
Bb
That you were aiming at the moon
Eb Ab
That like a gas balloon
Eb Bb Eb
You'd come falling soon - yeah-eh
(solo over chorus chords)
(Chorus) (<- lead with "Yeah the trap door...")
Coda: F C G Ab Bb C
That you could cheat and win, the trap door fa-a-a-lls in
