[Intro]
D D Bm G
D D Bm G
[Verse 1]
D
On the ceiling there’s a feeling and its spreading like ink
Bm G
that is slowly spilling out from the well
D
and all the guilt that you felt smiling down from above
Bm G
with a pit inside you deeper than hell
D
And it’s a crime all the time you spent blaming yourself
Bm G
All is fine in the shrine of mystery and doubt
D Bm A
And I tried, I tried, I tried to explain they’re in vain but it’s no fucking help
[Chorus]
G D A
All alone with the voices in your head
G D A
Skin and bones hell knows all the poison that you’ve been fed
G D A
All alone with the voices in your head
G D A
In the dark as you walk hand in hand with the living dead
D
The living dead
[Instrumental]
D D Bm G
D D Bm G
[Verse 2]
D
On the floor by the door there’s a sliver of light
Bm G
and a pair of cloven feet standing there
D Bm G
and there’s a knock as the clock strikes 3:33, as you awaken to a living nightmare
D
and it’s a shame that you blame your bad luck on a girl
Bm G
you destroy and rejoice as you fuck up the world and
D Bm A
I scream, I scream, I scream and I dream of the day that you’re finally gone
[Chorus]
G D A
All alone with the voices in your head
G D A
Skin and bones hell knows all the poison that you’ve been fed
G D A
All alone with the voices in your head
G D A
In the dark as you walk hand in hand with the living dead
[Bridge]
Bm D A G G F#m
Bm D A G G F#m
Bm D A G
I escaped to a place called Babylon
F#m Bm D A G F#m
through the gates face to face with the seven headed one
Bm D A G
I escaped to a place called Babylon
G A N.C. G
never to return I’m here to burn eternally home sweet home
[Chorus]
G D A
All alone with the voices in your head
G D A
Skin and bones hell knows all the poison that you’ve been fed
G D A
All alone with the voices in your head
G D A
In the dark as you walk hand in hand with the living dead
G D A
All alone with the voices in your head
G D A
Skin and bones hell knows all the poison that you’ve been fed
G D A
All alone with the voices in your head
G D A
In the dark as you walk hand in hand with the living dead
