The melody is played with the fingers, while the thumb keeps bass on the two lo
w strings.
The thumb occasionally speeds up from quarter notes to eight notes, but it does
not seem intentional.

Could ev - er make me out to be
A
And it makes me want to scream
G
When it's Halloween
A
And the kids are laughing
The rogue is a bank he's never broke
G
But worth as much as a joke
A
That no one is laughing at

VERSE 2:
A
Can you believe some things are not
G
Appealing? And there's a spot
A
On the ceiling of my childhood bedroom
And contains dreams that you can't imagine
G
But none of them match the vision
A
That you have decided for me
VERSE 3:
A
You want to take away from me
G
The things that are mine and it's not your right
A
I'll bet you wouldn't expect a fight
Can it be that I don't want what you want
G
And the only thing I could care for is
A
A place in a home that is safe and warm
G A
Safe and warm, safe and warm, safe and warm

VERSE 4:
A
Judge yourself if you feel the need
G
Just let me alone to be
A
In search of the truth myself
There is a drop of blood on the ground
G
And it seems to me that it's not my kind
A
And I can't be sure if it's yours or mine
