C                 F              G
What I deserve is comfort for my shaken soul
C               F                    G
The water on my hands are tears from long ago
F                   C
And my skin lets it in
Dm                    Am  
It's always been too thin
                       G
Since I can't remember when
       C9        C 
And oh what I deserve
F6     F        F6   F     G
What I deserve  what I deserve
           C9     C
Oh darling what I deserve
F6     F        F6   F    G
What I deserve  what I deserve
        C              F               G
There's solace in this dusty earth and rocky hills
       C           F                   G
Oh but even starry skies can't mend my broken will
F                    C
And my blood doesn't pour
Dm                       Am
There's nothing to bleed for
                  G
I don't believe  anymore
       C9        C 
And oh what I deserve
F6     F        F6   F     G
What I deserve  what I deserve
           C9     C
Oh darling what I deserve
F6     F        F6   F    G
What I deserve  what I deserve
Am                          F
Now  I have done the best I can
       Am                            F
Oh but what I've done it's not who I am
G                C        F     G
And oh what I deserve

SOLO

C                    F               G
Now time has left me feeling old and losing hope
          C                 F                G
Hell I've walked a long way just to find the end of my rope
F                         C
And you say that I should pray
       Dm                     Am
Well I would but my faith has strayed
                       G
I don't belive I'll be saved
       C9        C 
And oh what I deserve
F6     F        F6   F     G
What I deserve  what I deserve
           C9     C
Oh darling what I deserve
F6     F        F6   F    G
What I deserve  what I deserve
