Verse 1
C               F
How miserable I am
                                                 C
I feel like a fruit-picker who arrives after the harvest
                        F
There's nothing here at all
                                          Am 
Nothing at all here that could placate my hunger
          C              F   
The godly people are all gone
                                             C
There's not one honest soul left here on the planet
                        F 
We're all murderers and thieves
                                Am 
Setting traps here for even our brothers

Chorus 1
    G5          F
And both of our hands
            C
Are equally skilled
G5       F
At doing evil
        C
Equally skilled
   G5          F
At bribing the judges
        C
Equally skilled
G5            F  
At perverting justice
            G5
Both of our hands
            C
Both of our hands

Verse 2
    C              F
The day of justice comes
                        C
And is even now swiftly arriving
                      F
Don't trust anyone at all
                                  Am
Not your best friend or even your wife
        C             F
For the son hates the father
                               C 
The daughter despises even her mother
                      F 
Look Your enemies are right
                               Am  
Right in the room of your very household

No, don't gloat over me

For though I fall, though I fall

I will rise again

I will be patient as the Lord
                                        D
Punishes me for the wrongs I've done against Him
                         G5
After that He'll take my case

Bringing me to light and to justice
               Bm
For all I have suffered

Both of His hands

Both of His hands
