          G
I got off at your stop, 

at my stock's sudden drop
          Am                   
I'm a trusted doorstop or 
    
a paperweight, 
                Em
taciturn, inanimate
          G
I can sit on your shelf, 

like ashes foretell
  Am                            
A spirit in hell while the 

living sleep right on through, 
            Em
take a shortcut
             G
And I coulda called, 

I suppose, 

I'm the thorn on your rose
        Am                            
I'm the emperor's new clothes, and 
              Em
I make it look easier every time
         G
If you'd left it to me, 

who knows where we would be
        Am
Reading fortunes for free in 

someone else's goldmine
 
 
Em                  
 Survеy my breaker 
             G
like chеap wine
Am                  Em
 You let it in sometimes
                         G
A floodgate you can pantomime
Am                  Em
 You let it in sometimes
 
 
         G
In every crime of the heart, 

you'll rip yourself apart
        Am            
It's outsider art, 
                   Em
provokes every emotion
             G
And it may bewilder a few, 

it's an unpleasant view
          Am                    
You're an agent of truth, 
                      Em
twisted up at the tail end
 
 
                     
You play the villain 
            G
like a violin
Am                 Em
 It comes from within
                     G
Darkness you can befriend
Am                 Em  G
 It comes from within
 
 
       Am
It's a dead end
          Em
Don't overextend
                    
Hail the darkness 
              G
you can befriend
       Am
It's a dead end
          Em
Don't overextend
                  
Hail the darkness 
             G
you can befriend
 
 

Am  Em    G  
Am  Em    G
