INTRO  (not 100% sure on the intro)  

G, Dm, G  

G                                                     
Broke down at the end of the night,   

Em                     C  
can't seem to get anything right,   

G  
so numb I can't feel things anymore  

D				   
somehow can feel me letting go  

C                       D                          
I know theres so many things that I   

G                      Em  
need to do and I need to say  

C                            G                       D  
no matter how hard I try I can't get the words out right  


  
G  
man down tie a ribbon around my soul  

Em                             C  
I'm in the black and I'm outta control  

D                         
like a ship thats lost in the night  

C                             D  
with no direction or a guiding light  

G  
man down and I'm drowing in the pain  

Em                   C  
face down like a needle in the vein  

D  
you're the only thing that keeps me sane  

C                                          D                      G  
but somehow I can't keep you out of my rain  

                                    Em        C  
I see you standing in the rain  
  


G  
the lights of the city feels so bright  

Em                         C  
all these colors I've got inside  

G  
in these streets I feel like a foriegner  

D  
and all I paint is myself in a corner  

C                         D   
going on seems to hurt so much  

G                               Em  
all the world seems so cold to the touch  

C                                   G  
when I go to sleep I don't dream  

                   D  
I just see the black television screen  


  
G  
man down tie a ribbon around my soul  

Em                             C  
I'm in the black and I'm outta control  

D                         
like a ship thats lost in the night  

C                             D  
with no direction or a guiding light  

G  
man down and I'm drowing in the pain  

Em                   C  
face down like a needle in the vein  

D  
you're the only thing that keeps me sane  

C                                          D                      G  
but somehow I can't keep you out of my rain  

                                    Em         C  
I see you standing in the rain  
  


Dm, G  


G  
tie a ribbon for the child in me  

Em                          C  
on every door and on every tree  

G  
make it black for the way that I feel  

         D  
cause black is the only color thats real  


  
G

                                    Em         C

G  
broke down at the end of the night  

Em                     C           
can't seem to get anything, right
