[F#m] [C#]
[C#] [A]
[C#]
[A] [C#] Well, the sun [A] don't shine where it used to, and the angels are hiding [F#] their heads.
[C#] People [A] don't listen [F#] to their hearts anymore, [A] seems the good men are all [B] dead.
[B] There [C#] ain't no right, [A] wrong, [C#] no in between.
That ain't [A] the constitution [F#] they wrote for me.
[C#] Got a head stuck [A] in something [C#]
overseas, [A] standing nice deep [B] in hypocrisy.
[E] [C#]
[E] [C#] Oh, [C#m]
well [C#]
[B] [C#]
I found myself out on the open road, [G#m] heading out into the desert,
[G#m] looking for another [C#] world that's waiting on me, [B] that none of [C#] us can see.
[G#m] I keep thinking to myself [C#] as I move over the road, [C#m] where do we [C#] all come from?
Is it religion or another dimension, [B] [E] another place [C#] and time? Yeah.
[B] [E] Ooh, [C#]
[G#]
[F#] [E] [C#]
when my [E] life [B] was over [A#m] and done, [F#] finally [E] made my way [C#] through it,
another [E] life [B] has just [F#]
begun, is this [E] the way to [C#]
end?
[E]
[C#] [C#m] [G#]
[C#] [B] Oh, well.
Ooh,
[C#] [G#m] looking [B] in the eyes of the man in the moon, [C#m] he's staring down [C#] at me,
[G#m] wondering what he's thinking, [C#] and if he knows, [B] please [C#] let me see.
Life is like an open door we're all walking through.
[C#m] Do you know the answers?
[C#] No one knows the truth [B] until we [C#] pass on through.

[C#] [C#] Walking on the world [A]
upside [C#] down, it [A] keeps spinning [C#] round and round,
world [A]
upside [C#] down.
[A] I'm so tired of [B] all this bullshit going [C#] on.
