Repeat Pre-Chorus

Repeat Chorus twice








history's so strong
history's so strong
history's so strong
history's so strong

sing another drinking song the honky tonk will do
making another breaking bone your favorite ingenue
this, the distant dawn
this, the distant dawn

i put my cards upon the the table
i do this because i am able
one picks his broken down devotion
i threw my pistol in the ocean

eyes wide with revelation
shine at the police station
and when the verdict comes `round
i'm sure that you will go down

stay all night, we'll save the population
stay all night, we'll save the population
stay all night, we'll save the population
stay all night, we'll save the population

pistol and its pawn
sell it to the lexicon 
a pistol and its pawn
blood and border lines be drawn

take another bottle down the brothel and the shrew
make another awful sound, a rather gothic brew
history's so strong
history's so strong

i put my cards upon the table
i do this because i am able
one picks his broken down devotion
i threw my pistol in the ocean

eyes wide with revelation
shine at the police station 
and when the verdict comes `round
i'm sure that you will go down

stay all night, we'll save the population
stay all night, we'll save the population
stay all night, we'll save the population
stay all night, we'll save the population

history's so strong
history's so strong
history's so strong
history's so strong

sing another drinking song the honky tonk will do
making another breaking bone your favorite ingenue
this, the distant dawn
this, the distant dawn

i put my cards upon the the table
i do this because i am able
one picks his broken down devotion
i threw my pistol in the ocean

eyes wide with revelation
shine at the police station
and when the verdict comes `round
i'm sure that you will go down

stay all night, we'll save the population
stay all night, we'll save the population
stay all night, we'll save the population
stay all night, we'll save the population

pistol and its pawn
sell it to the lexicon 
a pistol and its pawn
blood and border lines be drawn

take another bottle down the brothel and the shrew
make another awful sound, a rather gothic brew
history's so strong
history's so strong

i put my cards upon the table
i do this because i am able
one picks his broken down devotion
i threw my pistol in the ocean

eyes wide with revelation
shine at the police station 
and when the verdict comes `round
i'm sure that you will go down

stay all night, we'll save the population
stay all night, we'll save the population
stay all night, we'll save the population
stay all night, we'll save the population
