F#
Though I've walked down a crooked path
D#m
That don't mean that it wasn't cursed
F#
My feeble heart was filled with wrath
D#m
My poison mind with thoughts perverse
C# B
And the devil is living in my basement
C# B
I'm trying hard to hide him from my wife
C# B
And I know someday I'm gonna have to face him
C# B
But for now I keep my secrets with the night
F# C# B C#
F#
As I breeze through this windy city
D#m
The devil he now rides upon my back
And all the boys here look mighty pretty
I need a fix and lord, I need it fast
C# B
I let my houseguests rest in my crawlspace
Don't let anyone tell you that I'm a bad host
I take cover behind my white facepaint
While I battle my bitter father's ghost

And by now the hounds have surely caught my scent
D#m
In just a short time I'm no longer free
Oh lord you know I would repent
But the devil he now speaks for me
C# B
And the icy needle kisses my veins
As I kiss my dear sister goodbye
Now as I descend into the final flames
It's my turn to die
