Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Somewhere along the way my hopefulness turned to sadness

Somewhere along the way my sadness turned to bitterness

Somewhere along the way my bitterness turned to anger

Somewhere along the way my anger turned to vengeance

And the ones that I make pay

Are never the ones who deserve it

and the ones who deserve it they'll never understand it

Yes, I know I am going to hell in a purple basket

At least I will be in another world, while you're pissing on my casket

How could you be Oh

So perfect for me? Oh

Why can't you ignore Oh

The things I did before?

Somewhere along the way exacting vengeance gave excitement

Somewhere along the way that excitement turned to pleasure

Somewhere along the way that pleasure turned to madness

Sooner or later that kind of madness turns into pain

And the ones that I made pay were never ones who deserved it

Those who helped me along the way, I smacked them as I thanked them

Yes, I know I am going to hell in a leather jacket

At least I will be in another world, while you're pissing on my casket

All that I can do now is sing a song of faded glory

And all you got to do is sit there look great and make them horny

Together we will sing songs and tell exaggerated stories

About the way we feel today, and tonight and in the morning

How could you be Oh

So perfect for me? Oh

Why can't you ignore Oh

The things I did before?

And take all your fears

And pretend they're all true

And take all your plans

And pretend they fell through

And that's what it's like, Oh

That's what it's like for most people in this world

The rich or the poor Oh

Muslims or Jews Oh

When roles are reversed Oh

Opinions are too No, oh oh

That's all I'm gonna say now

Before they come knockin' on my door now
