have any suggestions or corrections. --Adam

--Verse 1--
(play intro tab until the F# -- listen to song for timing)
The faster I find the bottom

The sooner I turn it around
                                              F#       Abm
It seems as though Ive forgotten just how far down
(intro tab)
I can go in an instant

And I can take you there
                                         F#
I can take all my friends and family and I wont care


--Chorus--
E           B             Abm            F#
    cause I have the most..   reckless heart when I try
E         B             F#                 Abm
    and I have the most..   beautiful darkside
E             B
    I need to find some meaning
Abm            F#
     Something true to believe in
E                    B
    cause left to my own devices
F# (one strum)
     the beautiful darkside wins
E (one strum)                 (intro tab)
     the beautiful darkside wins


--Verse 2--
(continue intro tab)
always one for a good time

always one for extremes
                                        F#                Abm
until the fabric of life starts tearing at the seams
(intro tab)
and I can never remember

when it started to turn
                                F#
I just simply forget all of the things I?ve learned


--Chorus--
E           B             Abm            F#
    cause I have the most..   reckless heart when I try
E         B             F#                 Abm
    and I have the most..   beautiful darkside
E             B
    I need to find some meaning
Abm            F#
     Something true to believe in
E                    B
    cause left to my own devices
F#
     the beautiful darkside wins
E                             Abm
     the beautiful darkside wins


--Bridge--
Abm
    Someday I will die

Could be today or tonight

The truth Is Im terrified
                      E      Ebm
That I have wasted time
                       E      Ebm
Have I just wasted time?


--Chorus--
E           B             Abm            F#
    cause I have the most..   reckless heart when I try
E         B             F#                 Abm
    and I have the most..   beautiful darkside
E             B
    I need to find some meaning
Abm            F#
     Something true to believe in
E                   B
    Im terrified of seeing
F#
   The beautiful darkside win
E                           (intro tab)
   The beautiful darkside win
