Gm      A#    Dm
History so strong
History so strong
History so strong
History so strong

Gm                     A#             D7
Sing another drinking song the honky tonk will do
Gm                     A#                Dm
Make another breaking bomb your favorite ingénue
 Gm       A#      D
This the distant dawn
 Gm      A#      D7
This the distant dawn

Gm
I put my cards up on the table
A#
I do this speak cause I am able
Gm
One pixie's broken down devotion
A#
I threw my pistol in the ocean
D#
Eyes wide with revelation
Cm
Shine at the police station
D
And when the verdict comes round
D7
I'm sure that you will go down

Chorus:
 D#                    F           Gm
Stay all night, we'll save the population.
Stay all night, we'll save the population.
Stay all night, we'll save the population.
Stay all night, we'll save the population.

Pistol and its pawn
Sailing through the lexicon
A pistol and its pawn
Blood on borderlines be drawn
Take another bottle down the brothel and the shrew
Make another awful sound to rap the Gothic through
History's so strong
History's so strong

I put my cards upon the table
I do this because I am able
One picks is broken-down devotion
I threw my pistol in the ocean
Eyes wide with revelation
Shine at the police station
And when the verdict comes round
I'm sure that you will go down
