(Am)                         Am  G  
    Welcome me to the city of angels
Devil Dprophets still hold my hCand
  AmI walked your stillborn streets for hoGurs
Ethnic Dechoes spitting out their C(add9)trials
They tell me I'll, GI'll be the first to praise the sDun
The first to praise the mCoon, the first to hold the lGone coyote
The last to set it frDee
Welcome Amme to a haven gGiven
It's well rDeceived into my open armCs
AmI ran in my sleep through shaking tGremors
I felt the splDitting earth echoing in my Cears
And I feel that I'Gll, I'll be the first to praise thDe sun
The first to praise the mCoon, the first to hold the lGone coyote
The last to set it frDee
Am   G    D   C
Am   G    D   C

Welcome Amme to your city of Gangels
See, there's a devil moDnkey laying on our backsC  
Now tell me, Amwhere's the heart, where's the bullet for Gbreaking?
Who's gonna give me a Dweapon, a pacifying weapCon?
And I need it I'llG, I'll be the first to praise the Dsun
The first to praise the mCoon, the first to hold the lGone coyote
The last to set it frDee, I said, 
I said welcome me IG'll, I'll be the first to praise tDhe sun
The first to praise the mCoon, the first to hold the lGone coyote
The last to set it frDeeC(add9)  G
