C#m A F# Well the sun don't shine where it used to And the angels are hiding their heads People don't listen to their hearts anymore A B Seems the good men all are dead There is no right, wrong, no in between That isn't the constitution that they wrote for me Got our heads stuck in something overseas Standing ass deep in hypocracy C#m Well I found myself out on the open road Heading out into the desert Looking for another world that's waiting on me B E C#m That none of us can see I keep thinking to myself as I move along Where do we all come from Is there religion or another dimension Another place and time yeah Chorus: C# E B F#/A# When my life is over and done F# E C# Finally made my way through it Another life has just begun Is this the way you do it Oh the way Looking in the eyes of the man on the moon He's staring down at me Wondering what he's thinking and if he knows Please let me see Life is like an open door we're all walking through Do you know the answers, no one knows the truth Until we pass on through Chorus Walking on the world upside down It keeps spinning round and round World upside down I'm so tired of all this bullshit going down Finally made my way through it When my life is over and done Is this the way you do it When my life is over and done Finally made my way through it Another life has just begun This is the way you do it Oh the way This is the way you do it Oh the way You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  A#  C#  C#m  E  F#  B  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
