Misc Musicals – The Radios Playing - New Addiction (Guitar)

Em
In the time it takes to wake up

           C
In the time it takes to run

        Am
The devil’s coming up to ya

                    C         D             Em
And you’ll never know who won.

Em
You can turn your back on warning

               C
You can turn your back on strife

               Am
There’s no parade in my honour

          C         D         Em
It’s just my failed life.

G              D           C9            G
Anytime somebody gets close

                                  D       C9
I pushed them away

Em                A                 Am                            Em
I’d always have a new excuse on any given day

B
You want to hear my prediction

A
Cuz I can see the writing on the wall.

B
If you pray to the god of your addiction

A                                                    Em
Where ya gonna be after the fall?

Em
The perfect note does not exist

            C
Your obsession is a mask

           Am
You already know the way out

       C              D         Em
If you’re up to the task.

Em
Some can walk up to the edge

            C
And some will take a leap

         Am
But you and I will just fall down

                        C           D             Em
Because the drop is just too steep.

G                        D          C9        G
Some people will make promises

                        D          C9
Some will swear an oath

Em                            A                           Am               Em
Our dedication to destruction might just kill us both.

B
It’s past time to stop this fiction

A
You can’t sweep this under the rug

B
You pray to your god of your addiction

A                                                           Em
Your belief is just your latest drug.

             Em
So, it’s time to walk away from it.

            C
Your sell-out can’t be sold.

             Am
Don’t play the cards you’ve been dealt

          C            D             Em
It’s long past time to fold.

           C          D            Em
It’s long past time to fold

      C           D
It’s long past time…

       Em
To fold.
