I Ddon't know when I nDoticed life was lCife at my expCense

The Bmwords of my hBmeart lined up likeGm prisoners on a fGmence

My Ddreams came in like nDeedy childrenC tugging at my sleCeve

I G/Bsaid I have no wG/Bay of feediAsus4ng you, so lA7eave

C But there was a time IC asked my fatheGr for a dollarG

D And he gave it a tD/C♯en dollar rBm7aise Bm7

C And when I needed Cmy motheGr and I calledG her

D She stayed with mD/C♯e for daEmys Em A7sus4 A7

Now Gsomeone's on the tGelephone, Gmdesperate in his pGmain

DSomeone's on the D/C♯bathroom floor, Bmdoing her cocBmaine

D D/C♯ F♯7 [tacet]

No one can convince me we aren't gluttons for our doom

But I trE7iedG♯ to mE7akeG♯ this place my G7Mplace; G7MI asked for providence to

C (9 fr.) C(9) G [tacet]

smile upon me with its sweet face; Yeah, but I'll tell you:

My place is of the sun and this place is of the dark

And I, I do not feel the romance, I do not catch the spark

My place is of the sun and this place is of the dark

And I, I do not feel the romance, I do not catch the spark

Maybe there's no haven in this world for tender age

My heart beat like the wings of wild birds in a cage

My greatest hope, my greatest cause to grieve

And my heart flew from its cage, and it bled upon my sleeve

The cries of passion were like wounds that needed healing

I couldn't hear them for the thunder

I was half the naked distance between hell and heaven's ceiling

And it almost pulled me under

Now someone's on the telephone, desperate in his pain

Someone's on the bathroom floor, doing her cocaine

Someone's got his finger on the button in some room

No one can convince me we aren't gluttons for our doom

But I tried to make this place my place; I asked for providence to

smile upon me with its sweet face; Yeah, but I'll tell you:

My place is of the sun and this place is of the dark

And I, I do not feel the romance, I do not catch the spark

My place is of the sun and this place is of the dark

And I, I do not feel the romance, I do not catch the spark

My place is of the sun and this place is of the dark

C (9 fr.) C(9) G [tacet]

And I, I do not feel the romance; I will not be a pawn

Gm [slowly]

For the prince of darkness any longer
