Despite What You've Been Told by Two Gallants
Despite What You've Been Told
Intro: C F C F C G F C G
1.
C
well I guess by the blood stain of your lips
F
and the wander of your fingertips
C F C
I should prove true to my ruthlessness and stay here
C
but I™m just a kid of ill repute
G
and the skin I wear™s my only suit
F C G
and you you™re just a substitute for the one that I hold dear
F G C
you know you could be anyone
G F
god forgive my tasteless tongue
G C
I never should have been set free
F G C
I claw my eyes I skin my face
G F
beg somehow to be replaced
G C
that™s how we deal with boys like me
2.
C
well I guess for this world so sick with loss
F
and those who dream despite the cost
C F C
I should climb down off my rugged cross and lay with you
C
but you know by now it's half past late
G
and I only came here for escape
F
you you™re just my next mistake
C G
like me to you
F G C
you know you could be anyone
G F
god forgive your unborn sons
G C
I hope they don™t end up like me
F G C
I drag my mind through streets of shame
G F
hate myself forgive the game
G C G
that™s how we deal with boys like me
Refrain:
G C G
but despite what you™ve been told
F
I once had a soul
C
left somewhere behind
G F
a former friend of mine
Am
and I hate to speak so free
G
but you mean nothing to me
F
so if the street lights they shine bright
G C
I™ll get home tonight
3.
C
I guess by the dim light in your eyes
F
and that to you all things come as a surprise
C F C
I should set the steel trap of your thighs and dive right in
C
but to you I™m just a confused child
G
insecure or in denial
F C G
go raise your robes and hold your trial I™ll let you win
F G C
you know I could be anyone
G F
god forgive what I should™ve done
G C
my thoughts enough to guilty be
F G C
yes I guess I made this bed
G F
but I™ll take the sidewalk instead
G C
that™s how we deal with boys like me
Refrain:
G C G
but despite what you™ve been told
F
I once had a soul
C
left somewhere behind
G F
a former friend of mine
G Am
and I hate to sound so true
G
but I mean nothing to you
F
so if the street lights they shine bright
G C G F C G F
I™ll get home tonight
