Writing this made me sad because Gerard said he wanted to do a music video for this but they never got around to it because they broke up. -Anjali [Verse 1]
Am                           Dm
In the middle of a gun fight... 

                         C
In the center of a restaurant... 

                E                     Am
They say, "Come with your arms raised high!" 

                               Dm
Well, they're never gonna get me, 

                                 C
Like a bullet through a flock of doves...

             E                Am         Dm 
To wage this war against your faith in me,

     C           E            Am 
Your life...will never be the same. 

        Dm                   C              E
On your mother's eyes, say a prayer...say a prayer! 
[Chorus]
Am
Now, but I can't 

       Dm
And I don't know 

                                  C     
How we're just two men as God had made us, 

                        E
Well, I can't...well, I can! 

Am
Too much, too late, or just not enough of this 

Dm
Pain in my heart for your dying wish, 

C                    E
I'll kiss your lips again. 
[Verse 2]
     Am                                    
They all cheat at cards and the checkers are lost, 

    Dm                                               C
My cellmate's a killer, they make me do push-ups (in drag) 

                           E     
But nobody cares if you're losing yourself...am I losing myself?!

      Am 
Well, I miss my mom,
Will they give me the chair,
   Dm                                            C
Or lethal injection, or swing from a rope if you dare;

                           E
Ah, nobody knows...all the trouble I've seen! 
[Chorus]
Am
Now, but I can't 

       Dm
And I don't know 

                                  C     
How we're just two men as God had made us, 

                        E
Well, I can't...well, I can! 

Am
Too much, too late, or just not enough of this 

Dm
Pain in my heart for your dying wish, 

C                    E
I'll kiss your lips again. 

Am      Dm
To your room... 

          C
What they ask of you 

     E                Am       Dm
Will make you want to say, "So long..."

        C 
Well, I don't remember, 

E              Am
Why remember...YOU?! 

Am                                Dm
Do you have the keys to the hotel?! 

                                             C      E
'Cause I'm gonna string this motherfucker on fire! (FIRE!!)

Am            Dm
Life is but a dream for the dead,

            C 
And well I, I won't go down by myself, 

                         E
But I'll go down with my friends. 

Am          Dm
Now now now now... (I can't explain)

        C
Now now now... (I can't complain)

         E
Now now, yeah!

Am
Now, now, now, now, now, now!
