      [Intro]
             C               G 
I sold my own soul to the Devil 
            D                Em
Said, “You don’t need your heart”. 
          C                 G
In this world full of trouble. 
           D                Em
Where the madness won’t stop. 
        C        G
And they take advantage 
        D              Em
And they run for the hills. 
          C      G 
‘Cause a life is harder 
          D              Em
When they swallow the pills.
           C           G            D        Em
Being lonely.  

C       G     D     Em

[Verse 1] 
        C                G
Took a walk with an angel 
        D                  Em
Because she said she can’t fly. 
             C                      G
I screamed out, “Can you forgive me?” 
       D              Em
Before she said goodbye. 
       C         G
Well, go into darkness 
 D        Em
before I try. 
 C           G                 D           Em      
Is life worth living when you need to get by?
I’m still lonely.  

[Chorus]
 C          G               D           Em
I was the king but not the king of anything. 
           C         G
I'm still lonely. 
             D        Em  
I’m still lonely.
  C         G               D           Em
Call me Mr. Righteous even if I always sin. 
            C          G
I'm still lonely 
            D          Em
I’m still lonely.

[INSTRUMENTAL]   
C    G    D   Em

[Verse 2] 
       C           G
Told myself I was going 
      D            Em       C
get out of this place. 
               G   
Find running water 
      D            Em       C
And find a new space.
           G           D
But in my own time 
         Em         C
I will know 
            G
That deep inside 
          D        Em
We don’t ever let go.  

[Chorus]
C          G               D            Em
I was the king but not the king of anything.
C     G      D     Em
C           G               D            Em
Call me Mr. Righteous even if I always sin.

C     G    D     Em

[Outro]
               C             G     
I sold my own soul to the Devil 
             D                 Em
Said, “You don’t need your heart”. 
               C              G
I sold my own soul to the Devil 
             C                  G
Said, “You don’t need your heart”
