Intro - 
C   C  C   C 
Am  Am  F   F 
C   C   Em  Em 
Am  Am  F   F 
C   G   C   C 



C 
You twist the knife 

C 
And I'll take the bullet 

Am 
You start the fire 

        F 
And the world then turns for you 

         C 
Isn't it right? 

           Em 
Isn't it a crime? 

         Am       C     F 
Isn't it cruel to be so kind? 

                       G                      C 
But it's all an act of love and it leaves you blind 

                    G         C 
And I'm not here to reason or deny 

                  G          C 
I buried you in a poverty of time 

    F                G 
Sometimes there's no other way 

    Am                          F 
You said the things you need to say 

       C 
At the greatest price 

       G 
Over a meaningless fight 

          Am      C     F 
Didn't it used to be so fine? 

C                      G               C 
Sometimes you need the dark to see the light 

C 
You roll the dice 

C 
And I play the fool 

Am 
You turn the tide 

        F 
But the storm steps through your eyes 

         C 
Isn't it right? 

              Em 
Or is it your pride? 

           Am     C     F 
Isn't it cruel to be so kind? 

C                    G               C 
But some temptations promise you paradise 

                    G            C 
And I'm not here to listen or confide 

                           G                     C 
And I've paid my debt to a world that bleeds you dry 

F                    G 
Sometimes there's no other way 

Am                      F 
You said the things you need to say 

C 
At the greatest price 

        G 
Over a meaningless fight 

           Am     C       F 
Didn't it used to feel so right? 

C                      G               C 
Sometimes you need the dark to see the light
