------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TORTURES OF THE DAMNED - Bayside ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Monsieur Colibri E-mail: jaydenallr@gmail.com Tuning: Standard Intro - Bm (So, so cold and tired...) [Verse 1] Bm I hate myself, A G more than I ever let on. A I'm burned out at twenty-two. Em A F#m I lived too fast and I loved too much and I'll die too young, Bm but I chose this cup that I drank from. A G Knew what I was getting into. A Em But I couldn't let out what I had to keep in. A F#m I'm ashamed of myself and unspeakable sins, that I've committed, and [Chorus] G Bm I've made mistakes, A G but I'll find my way. A There's no explanation for, Bm A G the things I've failed at before. A They can't hold my hand. Bm A G It just hurts to be a man, A Bm Through the tortures of the damned. Bm [Verse 2] Bm If I only had an axe, A G I'd sever the ties I've made with the world. A Em Maybe I can be a stranger, A in a strange place. F#m If I start now, maybe I can be saved. Bm A If I only had a mask, G A I'd cover these bleeding eyes. Em A They're bloodshot now but they'll be black by dawn. F#m If I wake up now, I can be pure again. [Chorus] Bm [Bridge] Bbdim G Look at me now, I'm on the tracks with my back A Bm toward the last train leaving town. [x4] [Chorus] [Chorus; Key Change!] A C#m I've made mistakes, B A but I'll find my way. B There's no explanation for, C#m B A the things I've failed at before. B They can't hold my hand. C#m B A It just hurts to be a man, B C#m Through the tortures of the damned. [C#m until end]
