Foot Of Pride
Key: BCapo 4English
Verse
Like the B5lion tears the flesh off of a man
So can a B5woman who passes herself off as a male
They sang "B5Danny Boy" at his funeral and the Lord's Prayer
The B5preacher talking 'bout Christ betrayed
It's like the E5earth just opened and swallowed him up
He reached too E5high was thrown back to the ground
You know B5what they say about bein' nice to the right people on the way up
B5Sooner or later you gonna meet them comin' down
Chorus
Well there Bain't no goin' G#mback
When your Efoot of pride come down
Ain't no B5goin' back
Verse
Hear ya got a brother named B5James don't forget faces or names
Sunken cheeks and his blood is B5mixed
He looked B5straight into the sun and said revenge is mine
But he B5drinks and drinks can be fixed
Sing me E5one more song about ya love me to the moon and the stranger
And your E5fall-by-the sword love affair with Errol Flynn
In these B5times of compassion when conformity's in fashion
Say B5one more stupid thing to me before the final nail is driven in.
Chorus
Well there Bain't no goin' G#mback
When your Efoot of pride come down
Ain't B5no goin' back
Verse
There's a B5retired businessman named Red
Cast B5down from heaven and he's out of his head
He B5feeds off of everyone that-a he can touch
He said he B5only deals in cash or sells tickets to a plane crash
B5Not somebody that you play around with much
E7 Miss Delilah is his a Philistine is what she is
She'll do E7wondrous works with your fate
Feed you B5coconut bread spice buns in your bed
If you B5don't mind sleepin' with your head face down in a grave
Chorus
Well there Bain't no goin' G#mback
When your Efoot of pride come down
Ain't no goin' B5back
Verse
Well they'll B5choose a man for you to meet tonight
You'll B5play the fool and learn how to walk through doors
How to B5enter into the gates of paradise- no ...
How to B5carry a burden too heavy to be yours
Yeah from the E7stage they'll be tryin' to get water outa rocks
A E7whore will pass the hat collect a hundred grand and say thanks
They like to B5take all this money from sin build big universities to study in
Sing "B5Amazing Grace" all the way to the Swiss banks
Chorus
Well there Bain't no goin' G#mback
When your Efoot of pride come down
Ain't no goin' B5back
Verse
They got some B5beautiful people out there man
They can be a terror to your mind and show you how to hold your B5tongue
They got B5mystery written all over their forehead
They kill B5babies in the crib and say only the good die young
E7They don't believe in mercy
E7Judgement on them is something that you'll never see
They can B5exalt you up or bring you down main route
Turn you B5into anything that they want you to be

Well there Bain't no goin' G#mback
When your Efoot of pride come down
Ain't no B5goin' back
Verse
B5Yes I guess I loved him too
I can B5still see him in my mind climbin' that hill
Did he B5make it to the top well he probably did and dropped
B5Struck down by the strength of the will
E5Ain't nothin' left here partner
Just the E5dust of a plague that has left this whole town afraid
From B5now on this'll be where you're from
Let the B5dead bury the dead. Your time will come
Let hot B5iron blow as he raised the shade
Chorus
There Bain't no goin' G#mback
EWhen your foot of pride come down
Ain't no B5goin' back ... oh yeah
