If you see that something is wrong, feel free to correct me. I'd love to see some
alternate versions of this song.
Listen to the song for the strumming. I tabbed this from the Andrew Jackson Jihad
version, so there might be some
minor differences compared to the Ghost Mice version. Love both bands, and the song.
DAG
The best years of his life is what he gave to you
DAG
Never late a day he's been faithful and true
DAG
putting out the tombstones and digging down the graves
DAGEm
for over thirty years now and I can't believe you have the nerve to say
GD
That now you're gonna have to cut his pay
AGD
'cause one of your priests did such an awful thing
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/g/ghost_mice/lightning_bolt_crd.html )
DAG
Lightning bolt oh lightning bolt why don't you strike them down
DAG
for what they did they deserve to be a black spot on the ground
DAG
And if there is a god living up there in the clouds
DAGEm
I can't imagine a better time to show his wrath than now
GD
Somehow these monsters all seem higher than the law
AGD
They won't see any punishment at all
DAG
He didn't give a damn about your god or your church
DAG
He was just an honest man looking for some honest work
DAG
And in his little finger he's got more purity
DAGEm
than a whole church load full of your child molesting priests
GD
It seems that you're making him pay for the guilty sins
AGD
Thirty years and that's the thanks he gets
DAG
Well it's hard to imagine there could be a greater sin
DAG
than using your trust for abusing a kid
DAG
As hard as it may seem, well I think that there is
DAGEm
and you're committing it by protecting these old evil men
GD
And if there really is a judgement day
AGD
you're gonna have a whole lot to explain
