D (xx0232@1) A (x02220@1) BmI (x24432@1)can't seem to see the seal we're breaking, I can't seem to see the seal we broke
G (320003@1) AI (x02220@1)refuse to recognize your views,
D (xx0232@1) A (x02220@1) BmSomeone (x24432@1)shouted "Everything's for nothing", somebody shouted, "All is lost"
G (320003@1) ABut (x02220@1)I can't buy that nonsense too
D (xx0232@1) A (x02220@1) Bm (x24432@1)Way back when the prophecies began, do you think they really had a master plan
G (320003@1) A (x02220@1)Or were they merely writing fables, stories?
D (xx0232@1) A (x02220@1) Bm (x24432@1)I don't know but it has occurred to me, the punishment that they threaten constantly
G (320003@1) A (x02220@1) (A)
It's only real if they could just convince me
D (xx0232@1) Bm (x24432@1) G (320003@1) AWe're (x02220@1)going down, down, down to Mephisto's Cafe
D (xx0232@1) Bm (x24432@1) G (320003@1) ADown, (x02220@1)down, down to Mephisto's Caf?. We're going down !
D (xx0232@1) Bm (x24432@1) G (320003@1) AAnd (x02220@1)the gears will spin and the sinners sin, but at least we'll give them hell
D (xx0232@1) Bm (x24432@1) G (320003@1) AAnd (x02220@1)the righteous few will spit on you, so bid them all farewell
D (xx0232@1) Bm (x24432@1) G (320003@1) AWe're (x02220@1)going down, down, down to Mephisto's Cafe
D (xx0232@1) Bm (x24432@1) (B_A_G_F#_A~)
We're going down (Right?) (Right!)
Verse (Riff#2)
D (xx0232@1) A (x02220@1) BmSo (x24432@1)fuck the flocks of sheep that keep amassing masses
G (320003@1) AAsses (x02220@1)being led so far astray
D (xx0232@1) A (x02220@1) BmAnd (x24432@1)I won't claim to believe the things I read, black books or agenda magazine
G (320003@1) A (x02220@1)I'd rather see in shades of gray
