I keep going to the river to pray
D# Cm A# G#
'Cause I need something that can wash all the pain

But your ghost, the ghost of you it keeps me awake
[Verse]
Cm
My friends had you figured out
Yeah they saw what's inside of you
G#
Trying to hide in another you
Fm
But your evil was coming through
Cm
These guys sitting on the wall
They watch every move I make
G#
Bright light living in the shade
Fm
You go hard makes the spirit shake
[Pre-chorus]
D# Fm
I had to go through hell to prove
Cm
I'm not insane
G#
Had to meet the devil just to know his name
A#
And that's where my love was burning
Yeah it's still burning
[Chorus]

Each time that I think you go
I turn around and you're creeping in
G#
And I let you under my skin
Fm
'Cause I love living in a sin
Cm
Boy you never told me
True love was going to hurt
G#
True pain that I don't deserve
Fm
Truth is that I never learn
