[Verse]

C#m         E       C#m               E
No one ever thought this one would survive.
C#m             E            A           B
Helpless child, gonna walk a drum beat behind.
C#m           E      C#m           E
Lock you in a dream, never let you go,
C#m           E        A          B
never let you laugh or smile, not you.


[Chorus]

         A              B          C#m    B    A
   Well, I just want to walk right out of this world,
          A         B            C#m
   'cause everybody has a poison heart.
   A              B          C#m    B    A
   I just want to walk right out of this world,
          A         B            C#m
   'cause everybody has a poison heart.


[Interlude]

C#m  B  (x2)



[Verse]

C#m                   E        C#m     E
Making friends with a homeless torn up man,
C#m     E                  A                B
he just kind of smiles, it really shakes me up.
        C#m             E          C#m  E
There's danger on every corner but I'm okay,
C#m              E                A            B
walking down the street trying to forget yesterday.


[Chorus]

         A              B          C#m    B    A
   Well, I just want to walk right out of this world,
          A         B            C#m
   'cause everybody has a poison heart.
   A              B          C#m    B    A
   I just want to walk right out of this world,
          A         B            C#m
   'cause everybody has a poison heart.
  B         C#m   B         C#m   B         A
   a poison heart, a poison heart, a poison heart.


[Solo]

E  A  (x2)


[Verse]

              C#m  E      C#        E
You know that life really takes its toll
      C#m          E            A               B
and a poet's gut reaction is to search his very soul.
C#m             E        C#m     E
So much damn confusion before my eyes,
    C#m              E            A                 B
but nothing seems to phase me and this one still survives.


[Chorus]

         A              B          C#m    B    A
   Well, I just want to walk right out of this world,
          A         B            C#m
   'cause everybody has a poison heart.
   A              B          C#m    B    A
   I just want to walk right out of this world,
          A         B            C#m
   'cause everybody has a poison heart.

[Chorus]

         A              B          C#m    B    A
   Well, I just want to walk right out of this world,
          A         B            
   'cause everybody has...


[Outro]

            C#m    B           C#m   E B
   a poison heart,    a poison heart, 
            C#m    B           C#m   E B
   a poison heart,    a poison heart, 

            C#m    B           C#m   E B
   a poison heart,    a poison heart, 
            C#m    B           A
   a poison heart,    a poison heart,
