Key: B
Introduction:
D G
We took 'em high, we took 'em straight up the hill
D G
They wanted it all, we gave 'em such a fill
D G
In their parades we stole every thrill
D G
And in their games we made every kill
D G
We took them hard, we took them up against the wall
D G
In their loss we never let them fall
D G
In their flames we sailed up to the moon
D G
In their rains we stayed dry like a fire would
D D7M
So the bottom of my fears
D6/B G
Is that the girl might just disappear
D
But that'll be the death of me
A
The day she's just a memory
Bm
Well she turned out the lights
G
When she opened the whites of my eyes
D
Another one in the dark
F#m Bm
Broken all apart
A G A A(#5)
Just another one in the dark
D G
When we rolled, rolled on like a big drum
D G
We went to the top just above everyone
D G
They wanted to win, tie us up with a string, and steal everything
D G
We took 'em skin on skin, we laid 'em down in the ring
D D7M
So I swear, we're a pair
D6/B G
Like loneliness and a prayer
G
And you know I may still believe
A
You may still need me
Bm
Well, she turned out the lights
G
When she opened the whites of my eyes
D
Another one in the dark
F#m Bm
Broken from the start
A G A A(#5)
Just another one in the dark
D G
And in their nights we made out with a loud scream
D G
And in their sleep we howled inside every dream
D D7M
So if you're trying to break me
D6/B G
Come on why don't you shake me
D A
Right out of my tree, the one that you made me, me
Bm
Well, she sang out of tune
When she shot down the moon
G
As I saw my all freeze
Down onto my knees
Bm
Where I was hit at the hip, between the cup and the lip
G
As I was struck down under, with lightning and thunder
Bm
As she cut all the strings, that I'd tied to her wings
G D F#m Bm
Leaving me in the dark, we stood just feet apart
A G A A(#5) D
But she never seen me at all
