Cain
The Choir

Verse:
Dm
Wicked words embrace the darkness
C                 G
For reasons too cruel
      Dm 
They hide in the throats of cowards who wait
         C                      G
In the shadows with knives for fools

Pre-Chorus:
Bb
Love waved a white flag
Gm
Fear ran her through
Bb
What could I do?

Chorus:
Dm                       Bb
I washed my robe in the river
Gm                        Bb
I washed my hands in the rain
Dm                       Bb
I washed my robe in the river
Bb                           C
I cursed the crime and the stain
