E E
She was raised a Protestant
A E
I was raised by wolves
C#m B E A
Both of us saw dignity in vain
E E
The stretching out in paradise
A E
It wasn’t in the cards
C#m B E A
See, neither of us were ready for the rain
B
Guess I was caught off-guard
C#m
When I heard the news last week
B
Ran into a friend of mine
C#m
With the word on the street
E E
That the life that you chose to lead
A E
Had the desired effect
C#m B
That you hit the ground running
E A
The day that you left
E E
That you’re playing for every side
A E
That you’re going for every kill
C#m B
But I don’t believe it
E A
And I never will
E
Never will
E E A E
C#m B E A
E E
Maybe it’s all dogs and bones
A E
Chasing every tail
C#m B E A
And howling at the injustice of the night
B B
And if I misjudged you
C#m C#m
Well, honey, that’s on me
A A
But I really do hope you found a way
A A
To get what you need
E E
And the life that you chose to lead
A E
Had the desired effect
C#m B
That you hit the ground running
E A
The day that you left
E E
That you’re playing for every side
A E
That you’re going for every kill
C#m B
But I don’t believe it
E A
And I never will
E E

Are you taking the time to listen?
E E
Is it doing you any good?
B B
Are you wresting with the demons?
A A
Are you moving the party forward
E
In your time?
E E
Are you looking to change the world?
E E
Or have you already changed your mind?
A A
Are you keeping the Ten Commandments
E E
Or are you leaving ’em all behind?
B B
Are you practicing your pirouettes?
A A
Or are you going in the line this time?
E
B B
’Til the life that you chose to lead
C#m C#m
Had the desired effect

Did you hit the ground running
A A
The day that you left?
B B
Are you playing for every side?
C#m C#m
Are you going for every kill?

And I never will
