Tom : D
G D Bm A G D Bm A
"Intermittent, continuous, loud and excessive noise wears a man down!"
[Verse 1]
G D
As the night time bleeds into the day
Bm A
And tomorrow spills across the sky
G D
While the sun's a harsh reminder why
Bm A
We are feeling barely human
[Pre-Chorus]
G D
We don't know what's good for us
Bm A
'Cause if we did, we might not do it
G D
Who knows where our limits lie?
Bm A
We won't discover 'til we push it
[Chorus]
D Bm
I should just walk away, walk away
A
But it grips me, it grips me
D Bm
When I should call it a day and make my way
A
Oh, it grips me
G D
'Cause the devil's got my arms
Bm A
And it pulls me back into the night
[Próxima Parte]
D Bm
When I should just walk away, away
A
Oh, it grips me
G
'Cause the devil's got my arms
[Verse 2]
G D
We got drunk on this unholy wine
Bm A
To deliver us from our old minds
G D
The promise of a better time
Bm A
'Til we're feeling barely human
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Próxima Parte]
D Bm
When I should just walk away, away
A
Oh, it grips me
[Bridge]
D Bm A
I would rather forget and wash my memory clean
D Bm A
Oh, I would rather forget and wash my memory clean
D
I would rather forget (I would rather forget)
Bm A
Wash my memory clean (Wash my memory clean)
D
I would rather forget (I would rather forget)
Bm A
Wash my memory clean (Wash my memory)
[Chorus]
[Próxima Parte]
D Bm
When I should just walk away, away
A D
Oh, it grips me
G
Woah oh
G D
'Cause the devils got my arms
Bm A
And it pulls me back into the night
D Bm
When I should just walk away, away
A
Oh, it grips me
