Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Stay out of the light
 Or the photoghraph that I gave you
 You can say a prayer if you need to
 Or just get in line and I’ll grieve you
 Can I meet you alone
 Another night and I’ll see you
 Another night and I’ll be you
 Some other way to continue
 To hide my  face
 Pre chorus
Another  knife in my hands
 A stain that never comes off the sheets
 Clean me off
 I’m so dirty babe
The  kind of dirty where the water never cleans off  the clothes
 I keep a book of the names and those
Only  go  so far
 Till you bury  them
 So deep  and down  we go
Touched  by angels though
I  fall out of grace
I  did it all so maybe
I’d  live this everyday
 Repat pre chorus
It  ain’t the money
 And it sure  as hell ain’t just for the fame
 It’s for the bodies I claimed and those
 Repeat chorus
Down
 …
And  down we go….
 And down we go….
 And down we go….
 And we all fall down
 I tried…. (again and again)
 And we’re all dance  alone
 To the tune of  your death
 And we’ll love again
 We’ll laugh  again
 And it’s better  off this way
We’ll  never again,
And  never again
They  gave us two shots to the back of the head
 And we’re all dead  now (2x)
I tried…
One  more night, one more  night
 Well I tried
I  tried well I tried well  I tried
 Cuz I’ve tried but  I lied
Arghhh..
I tried…I  tried I tried… yeahhhh
 And we love  again
 We laugh  again
 We’ll cry again
 And we’ll dance again
 And it’s better  off this way
 So much better off  this way
   (HOLD)
 I can’t clean the blood off the sheets in my bed
 We’ll never  again and never again
 They gave  us two shots to the back of the head
 And we’re all dead  now.
 THAT’S ALL FOLKS!
