Tom: F
Introdução:
Am
You can say I'm mad, you can say I'm crazy,
G
Sinner in the darkness, liar in the church,
G
Deaf man's silence, the blind man's search.
Am
Teardrop falling, memory recalling,
Em
Ghost in your dreams & your secret recordings,
G
Mad man's matches, the lump in the throat,
G
The pea under your mattress, the hole in your coat.
Am
Singer with the sound down, winner on the come down,
Em
Poet in the overcoat looking for a suntan,
G
On his birthday, prisoner on his first day,
G
Tired of the new wave.
F Am
I rise to meet you as your trust dissolves to shame,
G
Oh this innocence has turned & lost its way,
F Am
Retrace the footprints off the path from which I came,
G
I'm the beast in you, the beast in me.
(Which way are we going?
Am
You can say I'm mad, you can say I'm crazy
G
Needle for the user, the pain in your chest,
G
Beggar & the chooser, the wicked man's rest.
Am
Fear in the stuntman, sneer in the playground,
Em
Bottle in the hand of the dirty old drunk man,
G
Leaf falling, autumn calling,
G
dark clouds forming.
F Am
I rise to meet you as your trust dissolves to shame,
G
Oh this innocence has turned & lost its way,
F Am
Retrace the footprints off the path from which I came,
G
I'm the beast in you, the beast in me.
F Am
Bite my nails right down to the skin,
C G
Where one trust ends another lie begins.
F Am
Patch over holes in my weakened heart,
C G
Which angels hold & devils pull apart.
G
I'm the beast in you, the beast in me,
The bitterness, the jealousy,
F Am
And you hardly can imagine what you never had before,
G D
And the reason that you're given still leaves you wanting more.
F Am
