The Mountain Goats - Heel turn 1

The ^Eushers and the guys who chuck th^Ae popcorn They^E feel the rush of stillness in the ^Bair They^E turn toward the ring from where they're ^Astanding ^C# I'm just lyin^Bg there Bu^Et I prop myself bolt upright on one ^Ahand An^Ed I pull up on my haunches and I ^Aface the crowd Th^Ee guy who knocked me down has got his ^Aback turned In^C# comes the great grey ^Bpestilent cloud

^EI, ^AI, I'm^E not gonna die in^B here ^EI, ^AI, ^C#I'm not gonna ^Adie in ^Ehere

Work ^Ehard to be a hero all m^Ay life Alwa^Eys try to turn the other ^Bcheek And ^Esave my closed-fist punches for ^Athe ones who throw them first Al^C#ways show some mercy to the ^Bwounded and the weak Al^Eways help a guy back to ^Ahis feet A^Elways help old ladies cross ^Bthe street I ^Ewatch my guardian angel leave the^A building I ^C#am my only fr^Biend One^E thing about the good guys that I'v^Ae noticed They^C# always beg for mercy in th^Be end

A^End ^AI, I,^E I'm not gonna die i^Bn here ^EI, ^AI, I'm^E not gonna die ^Bin here ^EI, ^AI, I'm^E not gonna die ^Bin here ^EI, ^AI, ^C#I'm not gonna ^Adie i^En here
