Drop D tuning
D
Drownin in a bottle, weaving web of lies
D
Burning bridges, I've become a person I despise
G D
A hollow soul, am I too gone to be saved, I don't know
C G
Cause my heart is cold and the sins are coming faster
D
that's a recipe for disaster
I heard the Devil, he called my name
Said he was on my trail, would put me on the train
Take me down where the dirty dark lonely people hide
If he gets inside of what he's after
that's a recipe for disaster
Chorus:
C G D
So strike me down lord, let this rain wash me clean
C G D
Arms wide open, eyes to the sky, make me see
C D
Your love and your faith, just let it be
C G
cause all i can hear is the devil's laughter
D
And that's a recipe for disaster
I'm breaking hearts, promises and prayers
Called out to the maker, help me if you're there
Cause my heart don't see, not an ounce of good left in me
I'm playing with fire, seems hell's what I'm after
That's a recipe for disaster
Chorus
Bridge:
D
Get a sack, get a bag, fill it with gold
Bb C
still ain't enough to buy my soul
D
diggin down, diggin down, diggin my grave
Bb C D
they ain't gonna mark where they bury me
Chorus 2:
So strike me down lord. oh let this rain wash me clean
Arms wide open, eyes to the sky make me see
your love and your faith, just let it be
cause all I can hear is the devil's laughter
thats a recipe for disaster
