Tell me what sin         replaces love

 Dsus2  Em Dsus2 Em Dsus2 Em Dsus2 Em
I wanna know,       right now

             Em Dsus2 Em Dsus2    Em Dsus2 Em

Imagine yourself on a mountain
Mountain discovered with flowers
Flowers discolored with horses
Horses distracted by stones
Stone distrusted with me
Then you might know what I mean

       G                                F#
'Cause I want to kick love right in its gut
G                      F#
Beat it and leave for dead
G                      F#
Wash my hands in the river
G            F#          Em
Lie down and die in your bed

(repeat 1st verse)
    G                 F#
The voice on the receiver
  G                     F#
Baby cry howlin' in the wind
 G                         F#
I don't wanna beg for your mercy
G                  F#         Em
I wanna know right know, what sin
