C#5                        A5     D5
Sleep lay behind me like a broken ocean
C#5                             A5   D5
Strange waking dreams before my eyes unfold
C#5                            A5   D5
You lay there sleeping like an open doorway
C#5                          A5      D5
I stepped outside myself and felt so cold
A5     C#5     A5     C#5
Take a look at my new toy
      A5          C#5     A5      C#5
It'll blow your head in two, oh boy


C#5   A5    D5         C#5   A5   D5
Truth hit's everybody, truth hits everyone
C#5   A5    D5         C#5   A5   D5
Truth hit's everybody, truth hits everyone
C#5   A5    D5         C#5   A5   D5
Truth hit's everybody, truth hits everyone

(Now do the same the rest of the song)

I thought about it and my dream was broken
I clutch at images like dying breath
And I don't want to make a fuss about it
The only certain thing in life is death
Take a look at my new toy
It'll blow your head in two, oh boy

Truth hits everybody, truth hits everyone
Truth hits everybody, truth hits everyone
Truth hits everybody, truth hits everyone

A5        D5          A5        D5
Where you want to be, won't you ever see?
C#5   A5    D5         C#5   A5   D5
Truth hits everybody, truth hits everyone
C#5   A5    D5         C#5   A5   D5
Truth hits everybody, truth hits everyone
C#5   A5    D5         C#5   A5   D5
Truth hits everybody, truth hits everyone
C#5   A5    D5         C#5   A5   D5
Truth hits everybody, truth hits everyone
C#5   A5    D5         C#5   A5   D5
Truth hits everybody, truth hits everyone
C#5   A5    D5         C#5   A5   D5
Truth hits everybody, truth hits everyone

A5  B5  C5  D5
