Bm                         A              B G
I know the rain like the clouds know the sky.
I speak to birds and tell them where to fly
I sing the songs that you hear on the breeze
I write the names of the rocks and the trees

Chorus:
G       Bm              A
Oh you fool, there are rules,
     Bm          G  Bm A Bm
I am coming for you.
 G         Bm          A
Darkness brings evil things,
        Bm          G Bm A Bm
oh the reckoning begins.

I tried to warn you when you were a child
I told you not to get lost in the wild
I sent you omens and all kinds of signs
I taught you melodies, poems, and rhymes

Chorus:
Oh, you fool, there are rules, I am coming for you
(You can run but you can't escape)
Darkness brings evil things, oh,
the reckoning begins
(You will open the yawning grave)

Oh, you fool, there are rules, I am coming for you
(You can run but you can't escape)
Darkness brings evil things, oh,
the reckoning begins
(You will open the yawning grave)
