Heir To Woe Chords

Capo:3rd fret (Gm)

[Verse 1]
Em                          C          G
Blue heavens, blue heavens, why do you grey?
        C           G          D            Em
Found a rope in the tree and a crown in the hay
Em               C              G
Wolves they call they follow me home
C                     G            D              Em
There´s a knife in my hand but I'm still throwing stones
Em                             C         G
Stones that I'm throwing, they turn into maggots
C                 G          D             Em
Am I running from beasts, or just from bad habits?
C                 G          D             Em
Am I running from beasts, or just from bad habits?
 
 
[Chorus]
Em                   G               C           Em
Like the turn of the wheel, like the cold of the steel
Em                   G             C          Em
Ain't no use for the cryin' in the den of the lion
 
 
[Verse 2]
Em             C           G
King of fools, scepter and crown
C          G             D           Em
Sat on his throne like a god looking down
Em               C              G
Full of holes he still seems to float
C           G             D           Em
Weighted by lead that was tied to his throat
Em              C               G
Hands of glass, see-through and clear
C         G           D             Em
Cannot be seen by the ones he holds dear
C         G           D             Em
Cannot be seen by the ones he holds dear
 
 
[Verse 3]
Em                 C         G
Heir to woe with a burden to hold
C        G          D              Em
Now goes hungry for seeds sold for gold
Em                C           G
Cigarette filters made up his sheets
C         G        D              Em
Try as he might he could not find sleep
Em              C         G
Soul was taken, tied to a mast
C             G            D           Em
Put there for judgment and wind for to cast
C             G            D           Em
Put there for judgment and wind for to cast
 
 
[Chorus]
Em                   G               C           Em
Like the turn of the wheel, like the cold of the steel
Em                   G             C          Em
Ain't no use for the cryin' in the den of the lion
Em                   G               C           Em
Like the turn of the wheel, like the cold of the steel
Em                   G             C          Em
Ain't no use for the cryin' in the den of the lion
 
 
[Outro]
Em                          C          G
Blue heavens, blue heavens, why do you grey?
        C           G          D            Em
Found a rope in the tree and a crown in the hay
        C           G          D            Em
Found a rope in the tree and a crown in the hay
