[Intro]
Gm
[Verse 1]
GmLast night I heard a vFoice that said, "This is the eGmnd"
All my nerves have been Fworn to the threads
I only hGmonestly have one or two left
BbI got my faith, I got my family
I got a wCmire fence around my whole sGmtake
BbIf I believe only half what I read
I got a reason to be dug in deep
[Chorus]
It's revCmelation saying
GmDon't come running to mDe
When they're coming for yGmou
[Verse 2]
GmI seen those boys kissing bFoys
With their mouth in the sGmtreet
But I raised my son to be a riFghteous man
I made it clGmear to him what fear of God means
BbI'd hold him down under Tompkins Lake
Before I eCmver let him go to the woGmlves
BbThe path we walk is only narrow and straight
No son of mine will wander astray
CmAbomination
[Chorus]
GmDon't come running to Fme when they're cDmoming for you
Gm(Don't come running to Fme when they're Dmcoming for you)
GmDon't come running to Fme when they're cDmoming for you
Gm(Don't come running to Fme when they're coming for you)

They keep washing right Fup on those shores
Man they're gaGmthering their nuFmbers up
BbThose bleeding hearts come marching down my road
Well I'll be Cmwaiting right here at my dGmoor
BbIt's a lie to say it wouldn't be fun
If you're joining them then I got one
CmWith your name on it

[Intro]

[Verse 1]

Gm F Gm

Last night I heard a voice that said, "This is the end"

All my nerves have been worn to the threads

I only honestly have one or two left

I got my faith, I got my family

Cm Gm

I got a wire fence around my whole stake

If I believe only half what I read

I got a reason to be dug in deep

[Chorus]

It's revelation saying

Gm D

Don't come running to me

When they're coming for you

[Verse 2]

Gm F

I seen those boys kissing boys

With their mouth in the street

But I raised my son to be a righteous man

I made it clear to him what fear of God means

I'd hold him down under Tompkins Lake

Cm Gm

Before I ever let him go to the wolves

The path we walk is only narrow and straight

No son of mine will wander astray

Abomination

[Chorus]

Gm F Dm

Don't come running to me when they're coming for you

Gm F Dm

(Don't come running to me when they're coming for you)

Last night I heard a voice that said, "Don't give up your guns"

They keep washing right up on those shores

Gm F

Man they're gathering their numbers up

Those bleeding hearts come marching down my road

Cm Gm

Well I'll be waiting right here at my door

It's a lie to say it wouldn't be fun

If you're joining them then I got one

With your name on it

[Chorus]

Don't come running to me when they're coming for you
