1st VERSE
I'm checkin' into leaving,
yeah I'm folding,
I'm tired of breaking down and shaking this life around,
I'm tired of praying,
yeah I'm tired of trying myself,
I'm tired of being taken all the way.
CHORUS
And I don't need to be godless, but I am.
and I don't need my head deep in all my problems,
and I don't need your hand on the gun, yeah
and I don't need to say I'm godless with nowhere to fall.
yeah, I'm all ready to fall.
1st BRIDGE
2nd VERSE
Day by day, I'm like a paper puppet and I'm stumbling 'round,
I make it on my brain,
and I'm in big trouble, big trouble
I still gotta breathe, oh yeah
Like my shame, this'll all go down,
God damn me last for sure,
and I believe,
I believe I don't belong here.
CHORUS
And I don't need to get my head kept in,
and I don't need to be another lost soul who can't find home, and I don't need
to get my face dragged down in the muddy water
and I don't need to say I'm godless anymore.
2nd BRIDGE
Still I'm gone,
Still I'm on the road,
Still I'm on the brink of the edge,
Still I, still I'm feeling dead,
CHORUS
I don't need to be godless, but I am
and I don't need to be another lost soul who can't find home,
and I don't need your hand on the gun,
and I don't need to say I'm godless anymore.
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official UPO tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
