Artist: Avenged Sevenfold
[VERSE 1]
[Gm] It seems I [Bb]should have walked a[Am]way[Ab]
[Gm] Reverse the [Bb]wager I've no [Am]means to pay[Ab]
[Gm] Toto has [Bb]pulled back the g[Am]reen tonight,[Ab] in sight
[Gm] And blue pills [Bb]coat with such di[Am]sdain[Ab]
[Cm] I w[Bb]ore the s[Ab]hades for so long
[Cm] That I've fo[Bb]rgotten how to s[F]ee
[Gm] The curtain r[Bb]ises but who d[Am]ares to pull the s[Ab]trings
[PRE-CHORUS 1]
N.C.
I know this may be hard for you to believe and all
N.C.
But you only exist because we allow it
[CHORUS]
I[D]'ve q[F]uestioned all the [E]voices in my [Eb]head
[D]Are they mine or h[F]ave I been mis[E]led?
[D]Total underst[F]anding doesn't s[E]eem to mean a [Eb]thing
[D]When you can't see b[F]ehind the silver s[E]creen, a figurine
[E]Can't you hear me scream[Ab] ?
[VERSE 2]
[Gm] By the [Bb]way of cosmic r[Am]ays[Ab]
[Gm] A subtle [Bb]breakdown jarred the [Am]code displ[Ab]ay
[Gm] A simula[Bb]tion as [Am]I can tell[Ab] , our cell
[Gm] Playing [Bb]out a hopeless s[Am]cen[Ab]e
[Cm] We s[Bb]tand to [Ab]lose all our charm
[Cm] And faith just [Bb]seems to w[F]ane
[Gm] A billion [Bb]years can seem a s[Am]tunningly short [Ab]time
[PRE-CHORUS 2]
N.C.
You've been beaten down time and time again
N.C.
But still you find yourself at the center of it all
[CHORUS]
I[D]'ve q[F]uestioned all the [E]voices in my [Eb]head
[D]Are they mine or h[F]ave I been mis[E]led?
[D]Total underst[F]anding doesn't s[E]eem to mean a [Eb]thing
[D]When you can't see b[F]ehind the silver s[E]creen, a figurine
[D]Can't you [Ab]hear me scream?
[BRIDGE]
N.C.
You hear me, you had one thing to do, one thing
N.C.
And you fucked it up, piece of shit
Nurse, patient six-six-six-one-five-eight n[C]eeds to be sedated[Eb]
We [D]need 500[E]cc of Blue Comfort
N.C.
Oh hello there dearie, I've been expecting you
[SOLO]
N.C.
[VERSE 3]
[Gm] Postu[Bb]ring the way I [Am]fee[Ab]l
[Gm] Is truth [Bb]only what we b[Am]elieve is rea[Ab]l?
[Gm] Marvel the [Bb]sketches that [Am]paint the night[Ab] , starligh[Gm]t
And take a [Bb]breath before it's [Am]all erased aw[Ab]ay
[Gm] It seems I [Bb]should have walked a[Am]way[Ab]
[Gm] Reverse the [Bb]wager I've no [Am]means to pay[Ab]
[Gm] Toto has [Bb]pulled back the g[Am]reen tonight,[Ab] in sight
