Havoc

Intro: D    G     D     G

D               G            D  
Just when I thought I had 
       G
handles on this
         D           G          D
I could soften my guard behind 
        G
false confidence
D            G            D       G
Just when I found humble pie insipid
         D                G   
Exempt from this blind side and 
       D          G
firmly in its grip

D                   G        D  
Cause I am seduced by reaction 
               G
and under the influence

D                G   D      
I'm slipping again I'm up to my 
       G              D
tricks, off my wagon
              G                 A G
I have no defense, I'm reaking havoc
          A  G             D
wreaking havoc in consequence

D         G          D         
I get reduced by my own willfulness 
G
as
    D           G      
I reach for my usual god 
D         G
replacements
D           G               D   
Cause I am rich with sanction 
            G
and lax in my steps

[CHORUS]

Bm    G    Bm    G

Bm                G             Bm
If forgiveness is understanding I
           G              A       
Offer mea culpa for the millionth 
  G
time
          A        G              
On this toppling house of cards of
  D
 mine

I am beaten by my impulsiveness
By this uncanny foreshadowing of 
regret
Cause I'm repulsed by restriction, 
at least that's my excuse

[CHORUS 2x]
