Frank Black - My Terrible Ways: chords

    Am       F
My terrible ways
      C         E7
They got me in jail
       F           C
Where some did succeed
  G           Am
I always did fail
        G#           C       A7           F Fm
But I thought I was fine to wait for the day
          C           G#       C  F C
When I’d paid for my terrible ways

My terrible ways, they came to and end
When a mighty deluge freed the criminal men
But I stayed in Mississippi and three souls I saved
And so ended my terrible ways

Chorus:
 F              C
Terrible ways, terrible ways
 G                 Am
sooner or later a criminal pays
     F                C       Am
And I’ll never have enough, enough
    D7/F#   F
To pay this off - x2

My terrible ways, the govenor forgave
On account of three souls and account of the wave
That took my wife and baby and swept them away
All ‘cause of my terrible ways

Chorus:
Terrible ways, terrible ways
Sooner or later I know I'm going to pay
And I'll never have enough, enough
To pay this off
