Intro: Em G C (2x) Em G I knew a man who found a forest overseas C He grew his beard like the grounds bear trees Em G Callous his hands, his heart bled dry C He kept his fire in the clutch of his eyes Em G He painted with a dark stroke, dirty on the canvas C Creation was holy but we chose against it Em G The devil knows he's evil no need to proclaim C It's the choices we make the bring glory to his name Em D/F# G Em D G Em G Mr. Fox I know you've got a secret to tell C But folks we live just to hear ourselves Em G Talk, talk talk C Non stop stop stop Em G And it goes goes goes C Until we know, know, know Em D/F# G C Know not what we say Em D/F# G C Know not what we do Em G I knew a lady lost the forest for the trees C She grew a lust to bury all underneath Em G She cut to their heart, she bled them dry C She kept her fire burning up to the sky Em G She's building up her kingdom of sticks and stones C I hear the words in between they tend to never hold Em G Was she living ever after or making belief C She kept away from the heart the things unseen Em D/F# G Em D G Instrumento: C G Em G (6x) C G I don't want to be your monkey boy Em But my cymbals are crashing G My teeth oh they chatter C G Cause I'm cold, cold, cold Em G Without your claps, claps, claps C G And I don't know, know know Em If this is ever, ever gonna stop Em D/F# G Em D G
