E
This is the room, the start of it all,

G
No portrait so fine, only sheets on the wall,

E
I've seen the nights, filled with bloodsport and pain,

G                                            E
And the bodies obtained, the bodies obtained.
[Chorus]
              D5    C5           E5*
Where will it end? Where will it end?

              D5    C5           E5*
Where will it end? Where will it end?
[Verse]
Em
These are your friends from childhood, through youth,

G
Who goaded you on, demanded more proof,

Em
Withdrawal pain is hard, it can do you right in,

G                                         Em
So distorted and thin, distorted and thin.
[Chorus]
              D5    C5           E5*
Where will it end? Where will it end?

              D5    C5           E5*
Where will it end? Where will it end?
[Solo] E5 F#5 G5 A5 E5 F#5 G5 A5 E G E G [Verse]
E
This is the car at the edge of the road,

G
There's nothing disturbed, all the windows are closed,

E
I guess you were right, when we talked in the heat,

G                                                  E
There's no room for the weak, no room for the weak,
[Chorus]
              D5    C5           E5*
Where will it end? Where will it end?

              D5    C5           E5*
Where will it end? Where will it end?
[Verse]
E
This is the room, the start of it all,

G
Through childhood, through youth, I remember it all,

E
Oh, I've seen the nights filled with bloodsport and pain.

G                                                                 E
And the bodies obtained, the bodies obtained, the bodies obtained.
[Chorus]
              D5    C5           E5*
Where will it end? Where will it end?

              D5    C5           E5*
Where will it end? Where will it end?
