The album cut of this song is sharp, about A450, while the
single version is flat, about A436. So, no matter which version
you're listening to, it will sound slightly out of tune if you're
at A440 (but the album will sound much more out of tune).
If you're like me, and don't realize there are two slightly
different tunings because you're streaming the song from a website,
this will drive you insane.
[Gm] [D7] [F] [C]
[Gm] [D7] [F] [C]
[Bm] We touched the walls of the city streets and
[F] Dead ends plain, sadly showed us our [C]ways
Of never asking [F]why
[Bm] Cast down it was heaven sent and
[Bb] To the church, no intent to repent on my [Dm]knees
Just to [C]cry
[Gm] Until you [D7]travel to that [F]place you can't come [C]back
[Gm] Where the last [D7]paint is gone and [F]all that's left is [C]black
[Bm] Grey nights he's coming to me and
[F] Some day they'll punish my deeds and they'll [C]find
All the [F]crimes
[Bm] But then they ask when they gonna see them
[Bb] Then they gonna ask to feel the [Dm]ghosts, the walls, the dreams
And I've got [C]mine
[Gm] At last those [D7]coming came and [F]they never looked [C]back
[Gm] With blinding [D7]stars in their eyes but [F]all they saw was [C]black
[Bm] Fooled them hoping to seem
Like a s[F]lave of evil but the product of greed
And it's [C]not a mass so be honest with me
We can't a[F]fford to ignore that I'm the disease
[Bm] Practical since we had to be and
[Bb] When they were old they came back to me and they [Dm]tried
Oh they [C]tried
[Gm] And when you [D7]follow through and [F]wind up on your [C]back
[Gm] Looking up at those [D7]stars in the sky those white [F]clouds have turned
to [C]black
