A Asus4 A Asus4 A Asus4 A Asus4 A E
I was on the pagan run,
A Asus4 A Asus4 A Asus4 A Asus4 A E
On a superstitious road,
A Asus4 A Asus4 A Asus4 A Asus4 A E
Looking for a day to come,

To park my restless soul,
A Asus4 A Asus4 A Asus4 A Asus4 A E
I was lost and in a mess,
A Asus4 A Asus4 A Asus4 A Asus4 A E
Too proud to beg or bow,
A Asus4 A Asus4 A Asus4 A Asus4 A E
And though I'd never admit it,
A Asus4 A Asus4 A Asus4 A Asus4 A E
I was scared as hell.

A pilgrim for holy money,
A Asus4 A Asus4 A Asus4 A Asus4 A E
Chasing an empty hole (ooh ooh . . .).
