[Intro 1]
[A][D][Em][G][A][Em]
[G][Bm][D][Em][A]

[Verse 1]
[A]Years ago,
you said to me,
"I think I'm [Em]losing the fight,
Or [G]the fight's losing me,
I'm not certain,"
[A]And[Em] here[A] we are-the
closing closing scenes,
And all the [Em]house lights come up,
Oh, [G]the falling of our final [A]curtain...
I've [Bm]played a role for so long
that I've for[E]gotten myself,
But I [F#m]said I'd be there and
I'm [D]keeping my word,
You've [Bm]played yourself so well,
And now I [E]want to be you,
[D]A gre[F#m]at imitation of los[G]ing my nerve.

[Verse 2]
Oh, it's [A]over,
And everything is [Em]wrong,
everything has [G]gone,
And I know that [Bm]everything means [A]nothing,
Oh, it's over,
But I don't want to [Em]fight,
I don't want [D]to be [G]right,
I know [Bm]that everything means [A]nothing,
On the [Bm]road to Dam[G]ascus [A]they fell.

[Verse 3]
[A]I saw the light-I saw saw the light!
But [Em]hey, it never saw me,
Oh, con[G]versation has just
left me hea[A]then,[Em]
And [A]we could wait a thousand years,
Perhaps a [Em]million or more,
If it's [G]worth waiting for,
but I'm [A]leaving,[G][A][F#m]
[Bm]So on to a mecca of [E]earthly delights,
De[F#m]pression is only de[D]sire deprived,
Once [Bm]more unto the breach
and fuck my [E]getting it right,
[Em]We've died[F#m] for so long,
let's just [G]get out alive.

[Verse 4]
'Cause it's [A]over,
And everything is [Em]wrong,
everything has [G]gone,
And I know that [Bm]everything means [A]nothing,
[D]Oh, it's [A]over,
But I don't want to [Em]fight,
I don't want to be [G]right,
I know that [Bm]everything means [A]nothing,
On the road [Bm]to Damas[G]cus th[A]ey fell,
Well [Bm]I've been to Damascuc.
[G]It's

[Verse 5]
hell, hell is where I'm [F#m]gonna be,
The [G]devil my intimate [F#m]friend,
And [G]hell is other [F#m]people's hearts,
And [G]knowing that everything must [Bm]end.

[Verse 6]
[D]Oh, it's ove[A]r...
And everything is [Em]wrong,
everything has [G]gone,
And I know that [Bm]everything means [A]nothing,
Oh, it's over,
But [Em]I don't want to [G]fi[Bm]ght,[A][Em]
[G]I d[Bm]on't [A]want to [Em]be right,[G]
I know that [Bm]everything means [A]nothing,
On the road [Bm]to Damas[G]cus th[A]ey fell,
Well, I've [Bm]been to Dam[G]ascus as well.
