A              D
I'm an outcast that no one can save anymore
         A            D
And the days of my youth, have all long gone by
        A                  D            A                   D
I was the kind of boy the devil would offer a smoke or a drink to
   A              D                         A
Or a ride down town to some, God forsaken land

[Verse 1]
      A                                    F#m         D
One Sunday morning at dawn you know they baptized my soul
      A                                 F#m        D
But they held me down so long Christ I almost drowned
         A                 D                             A               D
I was the kind of boy who never learned to smile, so I kicked and I screamed
        A                D                F#m                 A
'Til I tore myself lose from all these, great big hands, oh yeah

[Chorus]
  E                  G               A
Wiseblood knows I walk the way wind blows
  E                 G                 A
Wiseblood hears grace whisper right behind

[Verse 2]
    D             F#m             D
My mommma, she turned around and said
      A                         D       F#m
Hey little boy you better wake up, 'cause your the walking dead
    A                                   D         A         D
Oh she was the kind of girl who never touched a smoke or a drink
             A             D               F#m                A
She just smoldered like an empty church, left to burn in the wind

[Chorus]
 E                   G                   A
Wiseblood knows I walk the way the wind blows
   E               G                   A
Wiseblood hears grace whisper right behind

[Outro]
 A            D        A        D
Wiseblood knows (the wiseblood knows)
 A          D            A       D
Wiseblood knows (the wiseblood knows)
 A          D           A         D
Wiseblood knows (the wiseblood knows)
 A      D    E
Wise, wise, wiseblood knows
 E          G                  D           A
Wiseblood knows I walk the way the wind blows
   E             G               A
Wiseblood hears grace whisper right behind
