The album cut of this song is sharp, about A=450, while the
single version is flat, about A=436. So, no matter which version
you're listening to, it will sound slightly out of tune if you're
at A=440 (but the album will sound much more out of tune).
If you're like me, and don't realize there are two slightly
different tunings because you're streaming the song from a website,
this will drive you insane.

We touched the walls of the city streets and
FC
Dead ends plain, sadly showed us our ways
F
Of never asking why
Bm
Cast down it was heaven sent and
BbDm
To the church, no intent to repent on my knees
C
Just to cry
GmD7FC
Until you travel to that place you can't come back
GmD7FC
Where the last paint is gone and all that's left is black
Bm
Grey nights he's coming to me and
FC
Some day they'll punish my deeds and they'll find
F
All the crimes
Bm
But then they ask when they gonna see them
BbDm
Then they gonna ask to feel the ghosts, the walls, the dreams
C
And I've got mine
GmD7FC
At last those coming came and they never looked back
GmD7FC
With blinding stars in their eyes but all they saw was black
Bm
Fooled them hoping to seem
F
Like a slave of evil but the product of greed
C
And it's not a mass so be honest with me
F
We can't afford to ignore that I'm the disease
Bm
Practical since we had to be and
BbDm
When they were old they came back to me and they tried
C
Oh they tried
GmD7FC
And when you follow through and wind up on your back
GmD7F
Looking up at those stars in the sky those white clouds have turned
C
to black
