Dearly beloved, won't you come around And I will tell you all the things I have found I could never be set free from this shackle bound to me to lord, oh lord, take pity on me I heard voices, the piercing sound but when I looked there was only you around and Johnny walked the line, he found it easy to be true but you tread a twisted path cause that life just ain't for you Chorus You raised hell, my love raised it like a firstborn son You raised hell, my love I'll be damned to see it stop You raised hell, my love raised it like a firstborn son You raised hell, my love raised it like a loaded gun I'm done You say where can I find a girl who'll do me well But you won't find a good one here cause you burned them all out, turned them all down Made them see things I'm yet to learn Chorus You raised hell, my love raised it like a firstborn son You raised hell, my love I'll be damned to see it stop Oooh Ooooh Oooh Oooh x2 Chorus You raised hell, my love raised it like a firstborn son You raised hell, my love I'll be damned to see it stop You raised hell, my love raised it like a firstborn son You raised hell, my love raised it like a loaded gun I'm done

Oh, Bones 03:48
Just as pretty as you are sly Your words are sharper than a rusty knife, They’ll cut you like a blade But words won’t keep you safe. Oh, this life it keeps you on your toes It wears your shoes down where you go. You thought the world would forget But you just ain’t been caught yet. [Chorus] Oh, Bones, Oh, Bones They won’t save you from this woe Or save your troubled soul Oh, Bones, Oh, Bones Burning hotter than the ground below But you’re colder than a stone More alone than alone Oh, you’re on your own. You say there’s things you’ve learnt to live without But the more you live the more you start to doubt And all the freedom in the world Could no longer free you from this hell. Stop this dreaded road that you tread on Could surrender faster than a loaded gun The comfort of your mothers’ arms No, it can’t keep you safe from harm. [Chorus x 2] Oh, Bones, Oh, Bones They won’t save you from this woe Or save your troubled soul Oh, Bones, Oh, Bones Burning hotter than the ground below But you’re colder than a stone More alone than alone Oh, you’re on your own. Oh Bones, oh Bones Oh Bones, oh bones

Had my heart on a string since the first night I always knew something about you wasn’t right First, I caught a glimpse there of your silhouette Then I was guided by the light of your cigarette Oh I’ve seen enough to know that you’ve played this game before We ain’t so different, you and I Two wrongs that finally make a right [Chorus] Oh we ain’t nothing more than the games that we play Just a sorry excuse for the mess that we made We ain’t nothing but bad for each other You’re the bullet, I’m the trigger Cold hearted killers I got a feeling here and it ain’t gonna rust but wouldn’t dare to admit that it’s love we both know we’ve done such wrong in our time Not even hell wants to deal with you and I Every game is just the same I’ll be the one you love to hate but keep me round cause you need me to Oh baby I’m your muse [Chorus] Oh we ain’t nothing more than the games that we play Just a sorry excuse for the mess that we made We ain’t nothing but bad for each other You’re the bullet, I’m the trigger Cold hearted killers

Don't wear your best dress, darling The one in the white All cause he said, darling It looked good that one time Don't count the hours til he comes back home Don't waste that time wondering Where the hell you went wrong Chorus Can I be honest? Can I be frank? He isn't dragging your heart along He just don't give a damn Don't forget a raincoat, darling don't stand there all wet All for a kiss in the cold that you'll never get Craving all his love eats away at your soul It's not that he's hostile, honey He just doesn't care enough to know Chorus Can I say something? Can I say it like it is? He was never playing your games, darling There was never anything to win Chorus Can I be honest? Can I be frank? He isn't dragging your heart along He just don't give a damn Chorus Can I say something? Can I say it like it is? He was never playing your games, darling There was never anything to win He was never playing your games, darling There was never anything to win
