B
[Verse 1]
B B/A B
Well they were given the grapes that go ripe in the sun
B B/A B
That loosen the screws at the back of the tongue
B E B
But they told no one where they had begun
E
B B/A B
They were given all the foods of vanity
B B/A B
And all the instant promises of immortality
B E B
But they bit the dust screamin' insanity!
E
B B/A B
One was over the edge, one was over the cliff
B B/A B
One was lickin' 'em dry with a bloody great spliff
B E B
When they picked up the hiker he didn't want the lift
E
From the horsemen
 
[Chorus]
E
But you!
A B E
You're not searching, are you now?
A B E
You're not looking anyhow
A B E
You're never gonna ride that lonely mile
A B E
Or put yourself up on trial
A B E
Oh, you told me how your life was so bad
A B E
An' I agree that it does seem sad
A B E
But that's the price that you gotta pay
A B E
If you're lazing all around all day
A B E
Four horsemen coming right through
A B E
Four horsemen and they're pissing by you
A B E
They make you look like you're wearing a truss
A B E A A/G A A/G A
Four horsemen and it's gonna be us
 
[Verse 2]
B B/A B
Well they gave us everything for bending the mind
B B/A B
And we cleaned out their pockets and we drank 'em blind
B E B
It's a long way to the finish so don't get left behind
E
By those horsemen
B B/A B
And they gave us the grapes that went ripe in the sun
B B/A B
That loosen the screws at the back of the tongue
B E B
But we still told nothing 'bout what was to come
E
Four horsemen
