lyrics

C F
I’ve been a soldier and I’ve been a flake
G C
I’ve been awol indeed
and the trains ride recklessly into my veins
doubtlessly making them bleed
and no kind of fucker can answer the phone
when the blood is all over the sheets
in a backroad apartment i play with myself
blacken my heart with the beast

Chorus chords
E Am E Am Dm G Dm G

Ifn they go with their heads in the sand
Ifn they go down on me
I’ll fight the same fight that I fought for my mother
the son of a bitch that I am
and turn into a soldier who’s getting much older
on the front lines, lifting the dead
and right when he asked me I took the flag down
and surrendered my armies to him
