Shotgun Hallelujah

His big mistake was cutting you out of his life

Slicing your heart with a kitchen knife

Into six little pieces every night

The hell he locked you in will surround him

So let the devil be his name

Let the devil be his name

I'll sing you a heaven

I'll sing you a heaven

And give you the glory

All of the glory

Bathe in my river

Wet your skin in my water

I'm no angel, just a lovesick loser

Singing a sham damned shotgun hallelujah

He held a red hot iron in a fist of rings

He cut your hair and he burned your skin

And he buckled your halo and broke your wings

He smeared an ash cloud over your rainbow

So let the devil be his name

Let the devil be his name

I'll sing you a heaven

I'll sing you a heaven

And give you the glory

All of the glory

Bathe in my river

Wet your skin in my water

I'm no angel, just a lovesick loser

Singing a sham damned shotgun hallelujah

Singing a sham damned shotgun hallelujah

Hallelujah, singing hallelujah in your head

Hallelu-, hallelujah in your bed

Dressed in red, waxing wise

With a widows peak and jet blue eyes

And bright black jeans, holding a rose gold gun

Stood the holy son

To sing you to heaven

I'll sing you a heaven

And give you the glory

All of the glory

Bathe in my river

Wet my skin in my water

Well, I'm no angel, just a lovesick loser

Let the devil be his name

I'm no angel, just a lovesick loser

Let the devil be his name

No, I'm no angel, just a lovesick loser

Let the devil be his name

No, I'm no angel, just a lovesick loser

Singing a ****** up shotgun hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah

Singing a ****** up shotgun hallelujah
