The Poison

(capo 1ª casa ou tocar 1/2 tom 
acima)

C
You were so young,
Am
And I guess I'm old.
F
Open your eyes,
G
Ill keep mine closed.
C
I prefer standing,
Am
And you take your seat.
F
I'll be wide awake,
G
And you'll be asleep.

           Am   G  F G
And you'll fall dooown a hole.
       Am    G     F  G
That's the one place we both know
        Am         G            F
You take me with you if you 
    G
could, but I wouldn't go
      Am   G         F        G
I guess sometimes we both loose our 
minds, to find a better road.

(C  Am    F G)
I can be pensive,

You can be so sure.
You'll be the poison,
You'll be the cure.
I'm alone on the journey,
I'm alive none the less,
And when you do your very worst,
Mmmmm .. it feels the best.

           Am   G  F G
And you'll fall dooown a hole.
       Am    G     F  G
That's the one place we both know
        Am         G            F
You take me with you if you 
    G
could, but I wouldn't go
      Am   G         F        G
I guess sometimes we both loose our 
minds, to find a better road.

Here comes a little solo. Just strum
 the chords.

           Am   G  F G
And you'll fall dooown a hole.
       Am             G         F
That's the one place in this 
   G
world that we both know
        Am         G              
You take me with you if you could,
              Bb
 but if you could I'd lose anything 
...

Dm             A
   Can't you see the faces melting
     C
as the sun rains from their eyes
Dm        A
   go on and keep your head with
  C               Dm
the hearts that you left behind
        C E
look at yourself look in the
F
mirror don't you see a lie?
      Dm
that you tell yourself
again a thousand times
    Dm
and the truth that makes us
laugh will make you cry
     G
You wanna die? No?
