Curtain Chords

E
Burning like an open nerve
                   D
I'm running like a dog
 
On linoleum
                 A
I don't know how come
                      C        E
But the effect of you on me is too much
 
Bro it's like you speak in code
                D
I'm only 3 months sober
 
Swear I'm so close
                      A
To buying a bottle of SoCo
                                    E
A pack of smokes and saying fuck it all
 
'Cause I tried to forgive you
        D
For the shit you put me through
                  F#m              A
But it's just the hardest thing to do
                C#m
So I guess it's goodbye brother
A                E
Goodbye rock and roll
               C#m        A           E
Guess it's goodbye to the only life I know
       C#m                     A
It's a shame you couldn't just say you were
C     B
hurting
       C#m            A     D
I will see you on the other side of the
E
curtain
 
Turning like a broken wheel
                D
My own Achilles heel
 
Tell me how does it feel
                 A
To have a normal day
               Am
Despite all my rage
                    E
I'm just a rat in a cage
 
Thoughts, they come and crowd my mind
                  D
And they're never kind
 
It happens all the time, it happens all the time
A                  C
I'm running out of time, I'm running out of
E
time
 
'Cause I tried to forgive you
        D
For the shit you put me through
                  F#m              A
But it's just the hardest thing to do
                C#m
So I guess it's goodbye brother
A                E
Goodbye rock and roll
               C#m             A      E
Guess it's goodbye to the only life I know
       C#m                     A
It's a shame you couldn't just say you were
C     B
hurting
       C#m            A     D
I will see you on the other side of the
E
curtain
            C#m                       C
And now the spotlight shines upon you all alone
E
Cuts a circle 'round your velvet throne
C#m                                 C
You take in the applause and give a shallow bow
    E
I'm watching in the rafters now
           C#m
And you're striking that pose as they're
C
throwing the roses
E
Lifting up your arms like the statue of Moses
C#m            C
One door opens another one closes
    E
I'm watching in the rafters now
 
A C#m A E C#m A E
 
                C#m
So I guess it's goodbye brother
A                E
Goodbye rock and roll
               C#m             A      E
Guess it's goodbye to the only life I know
             C#m                     A
Yeah, it's a shame you couldn't just say you
     E     B
were hurting
       C#m            A     D
I will see you on the other side of the
E
curtain
C#m
Goodbye brother
A                E
Goodbye rock and roll
C#m            A           E
Goodbye to the only life I know
             C#m                     A
Yeah, it's a shame you couldn't just say you
     E     B
were hurting
C#m                       A     D
Guess I'll see you on the other side of the
E
Curtain
