Intro
Amin G/A Dm/A Amin Amin/F Dmin
Amin F Dmin
You're a soul with no religion; there's ice in your embrace. In your dance of indecision, I see the
Amin F
anger in your face. A little drink to help my vision. A little something for the pain. There's no drug
Dmin F
for my condition, there's no sweetness in the taste.
G Emin7 F G A F
Tell me where the ride's gonna lead you. Do I have to pay to be your friend? There's nothing left to
G D
say, when you slipped away.
C/A G D
I can see you fading fast. I won't let you take me. When you slipped away. I can see your burning
C/A G D
stare. Nothing's gonna shake me, as you slip away.
Amin F Dmin
You're a world of blind ambition, staring through the looking glass. You willmeet your own collision,
Amin
when your conscience comes to ask.
Amin F
Steal the love from those around you, help yourself to everything. Take the shelter that surrounds
Dmin Amin
you... it leaves you standing in the rain.
F G Em7 F G A F G
Tell me if the money can heal you. Do I have to pray to make it end? There's nothing left to say when
D
you slipped away.
C/A G
I can see you fading fast. I won't let you take me. When you slipped away... I can see your burning
C/A G
stare. Nothing's gonna shake me.
