(with Above Riff):
(Em7)
Listening to the story of an angry old man,
He had the whole world in his pocket, but,
He had a hole there in his hand.

Dived Em7headlong into life, and ended Bm7up by drowning,
Em7Died by drowning.Bm7  
Verse 2:
His Em7blood is pure Bm7venom, and his Em7teeth are solid Bm7gold.
His Em7clothes are made from human Bm7skin, he's a Em7thousand years Bm7old.
He Em7lives down by the poisoned stream, where Bm7only alligators swim,
Em7Sits there drinking moonshine, playing a Bm7mean violin.
A Em7mean violin, a really F5wicked violin.

Verse 3:
His Em7wife is laying face down, in the Bm7pool upon the porch,
He Em7spied me through his Bm7blindness, as I Em7spied her with my Bm7torch.
His Em7skin goes tight around his face, as he Bm7smiles his blinding smile.
Em7Points over to a dozen wives,
Bm7Laying in a pile, Em7laying in a pile... F5piled high.
