THIRD VERSE: *For the first 4 lines there's no guitar, but the bass copies the notes the guitar would playing*
Am C F Am A black sheep boy dissolves
C F Am in hot cream, in sweet moans,
C F Am in each dead bed and empty home,
C F Am in each seething bacterium.
C F Killing softly and serial,
C G he lifts his head, handsome,
Dm horned, magisterial.
C G He's the smell of the moonlight
Dm wisteria.
C G Dm He’s the thrill of the abecedarian.
C G (See the muddy hoofprints where he
Dm carried yo THIRD CHORUS:
C G And there’s plenty of ways to
Dm F claim his crimes tonight,

Dm on his dime.
C G And there’s plenty of ways to wear
Dm F his hide tonight.
C G Dm You’ve got yours and I’ve got mine.
C G Dm You’ve got yours and I’ve got mine. OUTRO:
Dm So why
Am did you flee?
G D Don’t you know you can’t leave his
A control
G D only call all his wild works your
A own?
G D So come back and we’ll take them
A all on.
G D So come back to your life on the
A lam.
G D So come back to your old black
A sheep man. He says
G D A “I am waiting on hoof and on hand.
G D A I am waiting, all hated and damned.
G D A I am waiting, I snort and I stamp.
G D A D I am waiting, you know that I am,
G D A calmly waiting to make you my lamb”
