Bm D
Looking back across the years through a million unshed tears
Em Bm
How could I have held them all?
Bm D
Oh the price that I have paid for all the love I never made
Em Bm
Someone wrote up on the wall:
D D/C# Bm
"How mighty is my pen...
D D/C# Bm
if this is everywhere it's been?"
Em Bm
Yes the wine's delicious, but I'm needing something stronger
Em Bm
I'm growing suspicious that I won't be here much longer
D D/C# Bm
Feels like I'm going down again.
D D/C# Bm
Feels like I've lost my only friend

Bm D
Crawling home from some saloon and all my strings are out of tune
Em Bm
No one's around to break my fall
Bm D
No attempt was ever made, so I slowly decayed
Em Bm
Have a little faith in me, that's all
D D/C# Bm D D/C# Bm
"How mighty am I then, if this is everywhere I've been
Em Bm
And as the daylight broke I cast no shadow on on the wall
Em Bm
I will disintegrate until there's nothing left at all
D D/C# Bm D D/C# Bm
Feels like I'm going down again. Feels like I've lost my only friend
D D/C#
A5
And I never thought I'd see the day
G5 E5 A5
My heroes all became psychotics
G5 E5 A5
My drugs are all expensive exotics
G5 E5 A5
My blood is thick with antibiotics
G5 E5 A5
So I toss the coin to fate, it's only right
G5 E5 A5
Take no blame so I can sleep so tight
G5 E5
You know that out of mind is also out of sight
D D/C# Bm (x2)
Em Bm
As the daylight broke I cast no shadow on on the wall
Em Bm
I pass the closed apartment doors in rows along the hall
D D/C# Bm
Feels like I'm going down again.
D D/C# Bm
Feels like I've lost my only friend
