The Rip

View chords used in this chart
F#m G F#m G
As she walks in the room scented and torn hesitating once more
Em F Em G
And as I take on myself and the bitterness I felt I realize that love lost
Wild white horses they will take me away and the tenderness I feel
Will send the dark underneath will I follow
Through the glory of life I will scatter on the floor disappointed and sore
And in my thoughts I have bled from the riddles I've been fed another lie moves over
Wild white horses they will take me away and the tenderness I feel
Will send the dark home to me will I follow
