(verse 1)
G#5              F#5
   Tonight I'll have a look
    F#5   C#5      B5      G#5
And try to find my face again
       F#5            F#5
Buried beneath this house`
   C#5      B5        G#5
My spirit cries and dies again
F#5         F#5
Out back a monster wheres
   C#5       B5         G#5
A cloak of persian leather
F#5         F#5
Behind the TV screen
C#5          B5        G#5
I've fallen to my knees

(pre chorus)
(All chords in the pre chorus and chorus are down strokes, with a quick up in between
switching chords. You can here the rthymn in the song)
              G#5
I said you've got me where you want me
    B5             C#5
And dammit I can't turn away
    G#5                      F#5                C#5
I'm hanging by a thread and Im feeling like a fool
    G#5                        B5            C#5
I'm stuck here in between the shadows of my yesterday
    G#5
I want to get away
  F#5          C#5
I need to get away

(chorus)
G#5      F#5
Now you know
B5                C#5               G#5
Yeah, you got my back against the wall
F#5       B5             C#5             G#5
Oh gosh, I aint got no other place to hide
F#5                 B5         C#5
chained down, like a sitting duck
                 G#5
Just waiting for the fall
F#5                 B5           C#5           G#5
You know, yeah you got my back against the wall

(verse 2)

(intro x 1/2)

G#5         F#5
   Blanket of silence
F#5             C#5       B5        G#5
makes me want to sink my teeth in deep
         F#5
Burn all the evidence
  F#5   C#5    B5     G#5
A fabricated disbelief
F#5            F#5       C#5        B5         G#5
Pull back the curtains take a look into your eyes
 F#5           F#5         C#5           B5      G#5
My tongue has now become a platform for your lies
