Lyrics :
1. My mother was a witch, she was burned alive
Thankless little bitch for the tears I cried
Take her down now, don't want to see her face
All blistered and burnt, can't hide my disgrace

Pre-chorus :
Twenty-seven, ev'ry one was nice
Gotta see 'em, make 'em pay their price
See their bodies out on the ice
Take my time

Chorus :
Am I evil ?
Yes, I am
Am I evil ?
I am man, Yes, I am

2. As I watched my mother die, I lost my head
Revenge now I sought to break with my bread
Takin' no chances, you come with me
I'll split you to the bone, help set you free

Pre-chorus

Chorus

Bridge :
3. On with the action now, I'll strip your pride
I'll spread your blood around, I'll see you ride
Your face is scarred with steel, wounds deep and neat
Like a double dozen before ya, smells so sweet

Chorus II :
Am I evil ?
Yes, I am
Am I evil ?
I am man

4. I'll take my residence, I'll watch your fire
You can come with me, sweet desire
My face is long forgot, my face not my own
Sweet and timely whore, take me home

Chorus II

5. My soul is longing for, await my heir
Sent to avenge my mother, sleep myself
My face is long forgot, my face not my own
Sweet and timely whore, take me home

Chorus II

Am I evil ?
Yes, I ***in' am
Am I evil ?
I am man

Something wrong with the intro. If it isn't to long, it's transcribed wrong into ascci.

this can be played much easier when you play the high notes (14th till seventeenth fret) on the G string.
