[Verse 1]
Gm         Cm        D             Gm
A curse is laid o'er this wretched land
Gm         Cm        D             Gm
Most of the folks here don't give a damn
Gm         Cm        D             Gm
Should I bide my time or start the fight
Gm         Cm        D             Gm
Wait for the sound of drums pounding in the night


[Chorus]
Cm Gm D Gm
Ah ah ah ah
Cm Gm D Gm
Ah ah aaaah
Cm  Gm         D  Gm
Sit down for a spell
Cm     Gm           D Gm
Have i got a story for you
Cm       Gm             D
One that the old folks tell
Gm        Cm      Gm    D  Gm
Would you believe it's true


[Verse 2]
Gm         Cm        D             Gm
Whether god is great, or the folly of man
Gm         Cm        D             Gm
The faithful & the fools all have the same plan
Gm         Cm        D             Gm
Wait for something to happen so they don't have to act
Gm         Cm        D             Gm
Cowards & zealots running in the same pack


[Chorus]
Cm Gm D Gm
Sit down for a spell
Cm Gm D Gm
Have I got a story for you
Cm Gm D Gm
One that the old folks tell
Cm Gm D Gm
Would you believe it's true
Cm Gm D Gm
Ah ah ah ah


[Bridge]
Gm Cm D Gm
The lakes are boiling
Gm Cm D Gm
The rivers swell
Gm Cm D Gm
Spirits are restless
Gm Cm D Gm
Can't you hear them yell


[Outro]
Cm Gm D Gm
Ah ah ah ah ah ah
