[Verse]
 
      Em
Gonna buy me a bucket and a hammer of nails
Em
Board up the windows and head for the trails
    Em
And that's what I get for sticking my chin out
       Em
Well a kick in the teeth and a mind full of doubt
 
 
[Chorus]
 
F#                       G
I brought this on for my own hands
F#                            G
The precious disgrace from my own hands
F#                           G
If I could freeze time in my own hands

[Verse 2]
 
Em
Left my home with the shirt on my back
Em
Built my empire on a dry haystack
   Em
To break it down a one by one
    Em
And back in Cali and tired and alone
 
 
[Chorus 2]
 
F#                       G
I brought this on for my own hands
F#                            G
The precious disgrace from my own hands

[Verse 3]
 
Em
Traces of life blowing in the sand
    Em
The cornerstone of my piece of dry land
   Em
So hand me that hop and some of that wine
     Em
I'll drink you away by the end of this line

Built my empire on a dry haystack
To break it down a one by one
And back in Cali and tired and alone

I brought this on by my own hands
The precious disgrace from my own hand
If I could freeze time in my own hands

So hand me that hop and some of that wine
I'll drink you away by the end of this line

I brought this on by my own hands
The precious disgrace from my own hands
If I could freeze time in my own hands
