Verse 1
  D#m
A child in sweet duplicity
                             B
For innocence? Or slavery to nature
And the bents that haunt him 
F#                  C#
straight out of the womb?
   D#m
He doesn’t have to learn the things 
unseemly that his instinct brings
   B                           
To carry like a burden from the 
 F#            C#
cradle to the tomb
       B                           
You’ll never have to teach him how 
    D#m
to lie
   B                               
If we are born in innocence, well, 
F#               C#
don’t you wonder why?
    B                         
For selfishness already dwells 
   D#m
inside
    B                       C#    
The birthright of Adam, the curse 
       A#m
of the old man


Chorus
F#m
Day and night
                       D
Jekyll and Hyde in the fairytale
        E         (C#)
This is much more frightening
F#m
Darkness and light
                     D
Feed the new man and tear the veil
        E
See the old man dying

Verse 2
  D#m
Behold the loving family man

Who tries to do the best he can
    B                              
And loves his wife and children 
  F#                C#
even more than his own life
    D#m
But just like that, a wandering eye 
leads to a suffocating lie
    B                             
And selfishness and deep betrayal 
F#               C#
cuts them like a knife
   B                             
If mankind doesn’t have a sinful 
D#m
drive
     B                             
Then tell me why he’d wreck his 
     F#              C#
life to get some on the side?
    B                          
The warring of two natures deep 
   D#m
inside
B                          C#    
Starving the new keeps the old 
   A#m
man alive


Chorus
F#m
Day and night
                       D
Jekyll and Hyde in the fairytale
        E         (C#)
This is much more frightening
F#m
Darkness and light
                     D
Feed the new man and tear the veil
        E
See the old man dying
                          C#  D#m
Soul sickness nailed to a cro-oss

Humankind in innocence, a lie so 
       G

        G
See the old man dying
