Key: G
Introduction:
Bm
We touched the walls of the city streets and
F C
Dead ends plain, sadly showed us our ways
F
Of never asking why
Bm
Cast down it was heaven sent and
Bb Dm
To the church, no intent to repent on my knees
C
Just to cry
Gm D7 F C
Until you travel to that place you can't come back
Gm D7 F C
Where the last paint is gone and all that's left is black
Bm
Grey nights he's coming to me and
F C
Some day they'll punish my deeds and they'll find
F
All the crimes
Bm
But then they ask when they gonna see them
Bb Dm
Then they gonna ask to feel the ghosts, the walls, the dreams
C
And I've got mine
Gm D7 F C
At last those coming came and they never looked back
Gm D7 F C
With blinding stars in their eyes but all they saw was black
Bm
Fooled them hoping to seem
F
Like a slave of evil but the product of greed
C
And it's not a mass so be honest with me
F
We can't afford to ignore that I'm the disease
Bm
Practical since we had to be and
Bb Dm
When they were old they came back to me and they tried
C
Oh they tried
Gm D7 F C
And when you follow through and wind up on your back
Gm D7 F
Looking up at those stars in the sky those white clouds have turned
C
to black
