[Intro]
Esus4
(arpeggiated)
[Verse]
Em G
No one knows what it's like
D Dsus4
to be the bad man
Cadd9
to be the sad man
Asus2
behind blue eyes
Em G
No one knows what it's like
D Dsus4
to be hated
Cadd9
to be fated
Asus2
to telling only lies
[Chorus]
C D
But my dreams
G
they aren't as empty
C D E
as my conscience seems to be
Bsus2 C
I have hours, only lonely
D
my love is vengeance
Asus2
that's never free
[Verse]
Em G
No one knows what it's like
D Dsus4
to feel these feelings
Cadd9
like I do
Asus2
and I blame you
Em G
No one bites back as hard
D Dsus4
on their anger
Cadd9
none of my pain and woe
Asus2
can show through
[Chorus]
C D
But my dreams
G
they aren't as empty
C D E
as my conscience seems to be
Bsus2 C
I have hours, only lonely
D
my love is vengeance
Asus2
that's never free
[Bridge]
E Bsus2 A
E Bsus2 A E
When my fist clenches, crack it open
E Bm G D
Before I use it and lose my cool
Bsus2 A D
When I smile, tell me some bad news
Bm A E Bsus2 A
Before I laugh and act like a fool
E Bsus2 A E
And if I swallow anything evil
E Bm G D
Put your finger down my throat
Bsus2 A D
And if I shiver, please give me a blanket
Bm A E Bsus2 A
Keep me warm, let me wear your coat

No one knows what it's like
