=============================
VERSE 1
********
Em
As I ran down the street all the
D
Faces appeared to me one by one
Em
By the fifth I took a sudden turn
The melting snow revealed the bodies
D G
Buried long ago
Em
All the violence a man can take
Broken bones, and broken homes
D
Beneath my feet
---------------------------------
CHORUS
*******
F#m C#m
On the dark side
Bm D
We'll meet again
F#m C#m Bm
And cook it up for one more dance
D G
It's who we are
F Em
---------------------------------
BRIDGE
*******
Em D F
But I swear it'll be my last
Em C D F
And if I go, I go alone
Em C X2
---------------------------------
VERSE 2
********
Em
In the eyes of elephant
Nothings too big and nothing
D
Proves you wrong
Em
But the kind they had to offer
Didn't do me good
D
It barely cracked the softer shell
---------------------------------
CHORUS

Em D F
But I swear it'll be my last
Em C D F
And if I go, I go alone
Em C D F
Yes I failed and I can't go back
Em C
I'm wasted beyond my years
D F
And I breath to let it go
