[Verse]

                           
Well they told me that the 
G                 G7
sun ain't like to shine

      C                   G
For a heart so crooked as mine
         G               
f**k the sun, I'll find a 
                    D      D7
light and damn well peace
                          
And they told me that the 
G                  G7
wind ain't like to blow

        C       
Got the sails to 
                G
such a rich-a*s soul
              G               
Well f**k the wind, I'll be the 
                     D     D7
storm that parts the seas
            C         
There'll be praying to 
   G                   D
my name in the ancient east
 
[Chorus]

                      G
Cause I'm breaking my poor
                           C
With all the money that is stored
                 G
And man I should learn
                           D      D7
To start to take what I've earned
                                G    G7
And if the lord, he'll shoot me down
                      C
Before I finish of my rounds
                   
Well I promise I'll 
G                      D
wait beside the pearly gate
                 C        
To say goodbye before they 
        D      G
ship me out to hell

[Verse]
            G              G7
And if them shadow valleys throw
          C                           G
All their weight against my weathered bones
           G                     
I swear to god I'll plant my feed 

                    D   D7
and I'll fight them off

               G              G7
Oh I make them holy mountains ???
         C G
Baby I'm ????
              G               
So stand your ground as I raise 
                     D   D7
my hands to make the call

          C                    G  
Watch the pale horse paint the sky 
                   D
And all your idols fall 
 
[Chorus]

                      G
Cause I'm breaking my poor
                           C
With all the money that is stored
                 G
And man I should learn
                           D      D7
To start to take what I've earned
                                G    G7
And if the lord, he'll shoot me down
                      C
Before I finish of my rounds
                    G   
Well I promise I'll wait 
                  D
beside the pearly gate

                 C        
To say goodbye before they
