Gm D7 F C 

Bm                                
   We touched the walls of the city streets and 
F                                       C 
   Dead ends plain, sadly showed us our ways 
                F 
Of never asking why 

Bm 
   Cast down it was heaven sent and  
Bb                                          Dm 
   To the church, no intent to repent on my knees 
        C 
Just to cry 

Gm           D7             F                    C  
   Until you travel to that place you can't come back 
Gm                D7                F                  C 
   Where the last paint is gone and all that's left is black 

Bm 
   Grey nights he's coming to me and 
F                                               C 
   Some day they'll punish my deeds and they'll find  
        F 
All the crimes 

Bm  
   But then they ask when they gonna see them 
Bb                                 Dm 
   Then they gonna ask to feel the ghosts, the walls, the dreams 
             C 
And I've got mine 

Gm               D7              F                 C 
   At last those coming came and they never looked back 
Gm               D7                      F                C 
   With blinding stars in their eyes but all they saw was black 

Bm 
   Fooled them hoping to seem  
        F                                                           
Like a slave of evil but the product of greed  
         C 
And it's not a mass so be honest with me 
          F 
We can't afford to ignore that I'm the disease 

Bm 
   Practical since we had to be and 
Bb                                                  Dm 
   When they were old they came back to me and they tried 
        C 
Oh they tried 

Gm              D7                 F               C 
   And when you follow through and wind up on your back 
Gm                     D7                           F                  
   Looking up at those stars in the sky those white clouds have turned  
   C 
to black
