Cain

INTRO:  ?

Dm
Wicked words embrace the darkness
C                 G
For reasons too cruel
      Dm 
They hide in the throats of cowards who wait
         C                      G
In the shadows with knives for fools

Dm
Angry words lie still on the script
C                 G
And wait for their scene
      Dm 
They leap from the lips of lovers betrayal
         C                      G
Too bitter to blame on caffein

Bb  
Love waved a white flag
Gm
Fear ran her through
Bb
What could I do?

Dm                       Bb
I washed my robe in the river
Gm                        Bb
I washed my hands in the rain
Dm                       Bb
I washed my robe in the river
Bb                           C
I cursed the crime and the stain

Bb                           C
I cursed the crime and the stain


Love waved a white flag
Fear raised a gun
What have I done?

I washed my robe...
