Black Eyes

(início)

Em... Em, G, D, G
Em                        D              G
when you last left me, my blood was in a jar
         C       G       D     Em
and you kept it on your mantlepiece
  Em                          D             G
I couldn't count on anyone to stand there behind me
    C        G         D           C        G
and keep the dogs from dragging me off with them
 C       Em     C         G
 while I slept, you crept in
                Em        D        G     D
 and pulled the rug right out from under me
 C      Em    C          G
 in the rain, you stole away
              Em         D       G      D
 and took the parts that kept me functioning
     Em               C            G              D                Em
 now my heart will be blacker than your eyes when I'm through with you
Em, C, G
 and I said: “This life ain't no love song.”
 while I marched on blindly
 and my knuckles dragged across the walls
 and the birds up there mock me, and the scenery's turned wicked
 and your name is trapped beneath my tongue
 all of the roads are one now, each choice is the same
 all the roads, they are one now, each choice is the same
 I won't show my hands now, I know this ain't a game
 all the roads, they are one now, each choice is …
 take a step, take another step, take another step
 not a care for where they fall
 you burned me, yeah, you've burned me,
 yeah, you've burned me now one too many times
 my thoughts are the cold kind
 I got storm clouds that are brewing behind my eyes
