Tom: Am

Intro Am

Am              G
Hard times are ahead of me
        F                 Am
Through hard times I have walked
                               G
And I guess that dreams I will never see
     E                    Am
Even death won't bring me peace

                        G
I think I've been tired all of my life
           F                               Am
And you've already guessed that I'll never die
                                 G
They say there's no rest for the wicked
      E                 Am
And I sure have an evil eye

C  G            Am      C  G        Am
No rest for the wicked, no rest for me
C  G            Am      F    G     Am
No rest for the wicked, evil never sleep

                      G   
You know I've died so many times
                F                          Am
That I've grown tired of the church-bell's chime
                         G              
The earth can't bury the sins that I've done
       E                Am
Though living's my only crime

                G   
Cast him aside, don't cross his path
               F                          Am
Is what you'll hear when you ask about my name
                                     G     
And I guess that it's true, that I'd also kill you
            F                  Am
And I would even do it without shame

C  G            Am      C  G        Am
No Rest for the Wicked, no rest for me
C  G            Am      F    G     Am
No Rest for the Wicked, evil never sleep
F    G     Am
evil never sleep
