No Peace For The Wicked, no way, no how, if you've gone and did it you gotta pay somehow

No use complaining about the hand that feeds, now you know that it's raining how come you talk to me?
D G
How come you talk to me? Yeah
[Chorus]
C F C F
Well, your friends in high places won't bail you out this time
C F C F
With all your social graces it's like a pantomime
C F C F
Feeling so uneasy you can't tell friend from foe
D
You're always looking back to see who's coming through the door
[Verse]
G D G D G
You sold protection, fed the common fear, took 'yes' for an answer, you didn't see the tears
D G D G
Collecting for the loan shark with the silken fist, now you've crossed 'the company' with the Judas kiss
D G
They've got you on the list, yeah
[Instrumental]

You're like a loaded heater, just about to go off on the street

No Peace For The Wicked, no way, no how, if you've gone and did it you gotta pay somehow

[Chorus]
C F C F
Well, your friends in low places have tightened up the screw

To see who's coming through the door
You're like aloaded heater
Just about to go off the street
You need a baby-sitter
To pick you up if you can't stand the heat
You sold protection
Fed the common fear
Took yes for an answer
You didn't see the tears
Collecting from the loanshark
