E                      G 
No one knows what it's like 

          D       D 
To be the bad man  

          C       C 
To be the sad man  

       A           A 
Behind  blue eyes  

E                      G 
No one knows what it's like 

      D     D 
To be hated  

      Dsus4 C 
To be fated  

           A         A 
To telling only lies  

       C      D             G          G 
But my dreams  they aren't  as empty  

   C             D       E     E 
As my conscience  seems to be  

E      Bm       Bm   CM7    CM7 C 
I have   hours only lonely     

   C       D         D              A    A A 
My love is vengeance  that's never free   

       E 
No one knows what it's like 

G                      D 
To feel these feelings  

          C 
Like I do  

C               A 
And I blame you  


Chorus
   E                        G 
No  one bites back as hard  

         D     D 
On their anger  

                C       C 
None of my pain and woe  

                 A 
Can show through  

              C D              G     G 
But my dreams  they aren't as empty  

                 C       D       E 
As my conscience  seems  to be  

B      Bsus4 Bm      CM7    C 
I have hours   only lonely  

           D         D 
My love is vengeance  that's never free

Verse
E              B              A       E 
 When my fist clenches crack it open  

         Bm     G           D 
Before I use it and lose my cool 

       Bm    A            D 
When I smile tell me some bad news 

         Bm    A              E    A 
Before I laugh and act like a fool  


Chorus
E          B       Bm A        E 
 And if I swallow   anything evil 

         B      G       D 
Put your finger down my throat 

         Bm     A                D 
And if I shiver please give me a blanket 

        Bm   A                E 
Keep me warm let me wear your coat
