E
Burning like an open nerve
D
I'm running like a dog
On linoleum
A
I don't know how come
C E
But the effect of you on me is too much
Bro it's like you speak in code
D
I'm only 3 months sober
Swear I'm so close
A
To buying a bottle of SoCo
E
A pack of smokes and saying fuck it all
'Cause I tried to forgive you
D
For the shit you put me through
F#m A
But it's just the hardest thing to do
C#m
So I guess it's goodbye brother
A E
Goodbye rock and roll
C#m A E
Guess it's goodbye to the only life I know
C#m A
It's a shame you couldn't just say you were
C B
hurting
C#m A D
I will see you on the other side of the
E
curtain
Turning like a broken wheel
D
My own Achilles heel
Tell me how does it feel
A
To have a normal day
Am
Despite all my rage
E
I'm just a rat in a cage
Thoughts, they come and crowd my mind
D
And they're never kind
It happens all the time, it happens all the time
A C
I'm running out of time, I'm running out of
E
time
'Cause I tried to forgive you
D
For the shit you put me through
F#m A
But it's just the hardest thing to do
C#m
So I guess it's goodbye brother
A E
Goodbye rock and roll
C#m A E
Guess it's goodbye to the only life I know
C#m A
It's a shame you couldn't just say you were
C B
hurting
C#m A D
I will see you on the other side of the
E
curtain
C#m C
And now the spotlight shines upon you all alone
E
Cuts a circle 'round your velvet throne
C#m C
You take in the applause and give a shallow bow
E
I'm watching in the rafters now
C#m
And you're striking that pose as they're
C
throwing the roses
E
Lifting up your arms like the statue of Moses
C#m C
One door opens another one closes
E
I'm watching in the rafters now
A C#m A E C#m A E
C#m
So I guess it's goodbye brother
A E
Goodbye rock and roll
C#m A E
Guess it's goodbye to the only life I know
C#m A
Yeah, it's a shame you couldn't just say you
E B
were hurting
C#m A D
I will see you on the other side of the
E
curtain
C#m
Goodbye brother
A E
Goodbye rock and roll
C#m A E
Goodbye to the only life I know
C#m A
Yeah, it's a shame you couldn't just say you
E B
were hurting
C#m A D
Guess I'll see you on the other side of the

Curtain
