[Verse 1]
I [A]once knew a pair that used to [C]fit very tight
But now a [G]man's standing tall in the [A]wake of this night
[C]Na na nana [D]na, his eyes are [A]watering in anger at the thought of her sight
[C]Na na nana [D]na, the [A]scene of adultery sets the stage for his plight

[Verse 2]
On an [A]innocent trip, how can one [C]ruin so much
A be[G]lief in a soul, in a [A]beauty, or in a touch?
[C]Ba ba bada [D]ba, it's like a [A]three-legged dog in search of a crutch
[C]Ba ba bada [D]ba, dis[A]secting in past all the motives of such

[Verse 3]
She [A]once loved this person in a [C]trial out of sight
Dis[G]posing of the present situ[A]ation, it felt right
[C]Ba ba bada [D]ba, two [A]winters and summers passed over like a sound
[C]Ba ba bada [D]ba, and now the [A]two of them are lost in a screaming battleground

[Verse 4]
With [A]support all around him like a [C]fence or a drink
He real[G]izes in sadness that [A]now he must begin to think
[C]Ba ba bada [D]ba, to [A]filter his energy upon losses and fame
[C]Ba ba bada [D]ba, she'll [A]think of the restful the peaceful or the gain

His [A]sister's a friend, she's like a [C]relative to both
Ob[G]liged to her brother under [A]silhouetted oath
[C]Ba ba bada [D]ba, but she's [A]there for the two with her bias undone
[C]Ba ba bada [D]ba, and she'll help [A]see it through under moonlight or sun

But to[A]day they've still yet to look each [C]other in the eye
And in a [G]second he manages to [A]dip to the other side
[C]Ba ba bada [D]ba, up to the [A]people of the sky
[C]Ba ba bada [D]ba, and [A]now he'll never die
