Intro: A F#m D E D
       A F#m D E

A                         F#m
From the housetops to the gutters
D                       E      D
From the oceans to the shores
    A                          
The warning signs have all been 
            F#m
bright and garish
D                           E
Far to great in number to ignore

From the cities to the swamplands
From the highways to the hills
Our love has never had a leg to 
stand on
From the aspirins to the cross-tops 
to the Elevils
           D   E            A    
But I will walk down to the end 
    D
with you
            A                E    
If you will come all the way down 
     A
with me

From the entrance to the exit
Is longer than it looks from where 
we stand
I wanna say I'm sorry for stuff I 
haven't done yet
Things will shortly get completely 
out of hand

I can feel it in the rotten air 
tonight
In the tips of my fingers in the 
skin on my face
In the weak last gasp of the 
evening's dying light
In the way those eyes I've always 
loved illuminate this place
       D                  E
Like a trashcan fire in a prison 
cell
         A                   F#m
Like the searchlights in the parking
 lots of hell
       D   E            A        D
I will walk down to the end with you
            A                E    
If you will come all the way down 
     A
with me
