-----  ABOUT THE SONG  -----


      This song used a 4-string banjo for chords and for wood-tapping sounds. It also used an egg shaker, my hands clapping, and 2 tracks of my voice.

      Please note: After the section of this page showing both chords and lyrics, there's a section showing only the lyrics. This will make it easier to read the lyrics as poetry, for those who don't have an interest in learning the chords.

Nothing that you say,
Can ever change the fact
You kidnapped your own child -
With crimes in court.

Nothing that you do,
Can ever remedy the harm
You caused to your family.

But, I think I know
A way for you to escape:

Suicide, my dear,
Could be your open
Gate.

May you be guided and protected
