     Am           Bm      Em
Well I was going down on my lines
       Am             Bm               Em
And I heard that the waiting feel was fine
           Am            Bm
But I was reading in between the lies
Em
Like I had my hands right over my eyes
Am             Bm
See, this is what I despise
Em
Of you and I

I took a trip to the dark side
I placed it on my tongue
Re-wired my whole brain
Started hell it begun
The world drained from colour
Black and white was the sun
I forgot my own name
I forgot who I was

Chorus:
              Am            Bm
But when the big smoke comes
Em
I know the way
               Am
'Cause I wanna
           Bm
Guide your love
            Em
Guide your love back home
                 Am           Bm
'Cause when the big smoke comes
Em
I know the way
               Am
'Cause I wanna
            Bm
guide your love
      Em
Back home
