[Intro]
A C#m D E, D
A F#m D E
[Verse 1]
A C#m From the housetops to the gutters D E D From the oceans to the shores A F#m The warning signs have all been bright and garish D E Far to great in number to ignore A C#m From the cities to the swamplands D E D From the highways to the hills A F#m Our love has never had a leg to stand on D E From the aspirins to the cross-tops to the Elevils
[Chorus 1]
D E A D But I will walk down to the end with you A E A If you will come all the way down with me
[Verse 2]
A C#m From the entrance to the exit D E D Is longer than it looks from where we stand A F#m I wanna say I'm sorry for stuff I haven't done yet D E Things will shortly get completely out of hand A C#m I can feel it in the rotten air tonight D E D In the tips of my fingers in the skin on my face A F#m In the weak last gasp of the evening's dying light D E In the way those eyes I've always loved illuminate this place
[Chorus 2]
D E Like a trashcan fire in a prison cell A D Like the searchlights in the parking lots of hell A E A D I will walk down to the end with you A E A If you will come all the way down with me
(Then verse progression while organ solo plays over it,
followed by D E A, then A E D transitioned rapidly,
then A E A.)
