When I Leave This House

Intro - A



(verse 1)
A
Just like Cain & Able, I let the
 devil come 'round,
           D                       
Now I'm the king of the garden, 
         A
wear a snake for a crown,
        E                       
When the lord points his finger, 
                 A
baby I'm goin' down,


(verse 2)
A
Well, I'm no Hells Angel, But I like
 to pretend,
       D                           
I'm the king of the highway, On the
   A
 prairie wind,
      E                         
With a black leather soul, gonna 
                    A
ride to the bitter end, here we go


(chorus)

Carve my initials with chicken 
scratch,
E
The Garden of Eden hasn't broken my 
back,
        A                       
When I leave this house, I ain't 
            A
coming back


(verse 3)
Well, hey now mama, Don't let your 
love dry up,
I'm a hungry child, with an empty 
cup,
You can't feed your babies, when 
you're all shook up


(chorus,
yeah, When I leave this house, I 
ain't coming back,
When I leave this house, I ain't 
coming back,
Tie my sins to a railroad track,
Carve my initials with chicken 
scratch,
The Garden of Eden hasn't broken my 
back,
When I leave this house,I ain't 
coming back

Well, I'm no Hells Angel,
But I like to pretend I'm the king
