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
