Slash/Eric Dover/Duff McKagan)
Well I know, you couldnšt love me
Cause youšre promised to a wealthy man
Take a look, what are you seeinš ?
Is that a noose or a wedding band
Should I go to see a healer
Nervous twitchinš in my hands
Nervous twitchinš in my head
God help me rid this feelinš
Cause Išm fallinš all to pieces
And I cnašt get out of bed
Beggars and hangers-on
Try to take you from me
Someone with a Bible in his pocket
Clouding everything you see
Beggars and hangers-on
They chip it away
Bury your soul in the river
Cause the end is here to stay
God help me rid this feelinš
Cause Išm fallinš all to pieces
And I canšt get out of bed
I was wrong
I donšt need you
It seems reckless
And unfair
Better days
Are far behind
Guess thatšs another cross
Išll have to bear
I know that therešs a time
and a reason
To take the ghost and lock it up inside
And maybe I am down
But Išm not beaten
Like anything
We were born to die
Beggars and hangers-on
Try to take you from me
Someone with a Bible in his pocket
Clouding everything you see
Beggars and hangers-on
They chip it away
Bury your soul in the river
Cause the end is here to stay
Beggars and hangers-on
Beggars and hangers-on
No no no no
No no no no
No no no no
