[Intro]
D5


[Verse 1]
D5
On the night they killed Faye Tucker
        D5
I was gambling away my last dime
        D5
Well I pulled down the lever
       D5
And I sent up a prayer
      Csus2        G/B        D5
That my luck would not be denied 
Csus2        G/B        D5
My luck would not be denied


[Verse 2]
D5
Roll out the head of Faye Tucker
D5
And never you mind what they say
D5
You may be reborn but its all just for scorn
     Csus2              G/B        D5
And that's what you'll take to the grave
Csus2              G/B        D5
That's what you'll take to the grave 


[Verse 3]
D5
Well the minister wants you to live now
D5
And the governor wants you to fry
D5
And whatever it was that you thought might occur
   Csus2                 G/B        D5
They got something else in their minds 
   Csus2                 G/B        D5
The got something else in their minds 


[Verse 4]
D5
If you live they gonna make you a campaigner
D5
If you die they gonna make you a grave
D5
Either way it goes down
D5
Well your life's not your own 
Csus2           G/B        D5
And that's why killin' don't pay
Csus2           G/B        D5
That's why killin' don't pay 


[Bridge]
N.C.
I thought I heard the angel's bells
N.C.
But they were just the hounds of hell
N.C.
I thought I heard the angel's bells
N.C.
But they were just the hounds of hell 


[Verse 5]
D5
What did you learn Faye Tucker
D5
What will take from this world 
D5
Well mercy could prove us
D5
But nothing would move us
 

[Outro]

To rise above just being cruel
