Intro: The verse riff, end with C and G powerchords
(that riff)
It's been a long dark lonely hall
between the cracks I can read the scrawl
it's written down in a crooked rhyme
that sold me out before my time but
(riff)
since then I been back down to the edge
I can't believe the things you never said
I can't explain the words I never found
my whole world should come crashing down but
A
you can't sell me out
B C
with everything you think about
(riff)
I think back now I draw a blank
there ain't no need to dig the past
I don't wanna live my life in a day
I ain't got no need for this plastic cage
A
but you don't think about
B C
anything I think about
you know what I mean D C
you know what I mean D C
you know what I mean D C
you know what I mean D C G
(riff)
now you know for sure you're alive
you watched her leave before your eyes
now I'm afraid to say your name
but I ain't afraid to share this blame
A
but you can't sell me out
B C
with everything you think about
you know what I mean D C
you know what I mean D C
you know what I mean D C
you know what I mean D C G
Bridge:
D C D C D C G
(riff)
It's been a long dark lonely hall
between the cracks I can read the scrawl
find a place it feels like home
get some clue to where I'm going
you don't think about
anything I think about
you know what I mean D C
you know what I mean D C
you know what I mean D C
you know what I mean D C G
you know what I mean D C
you know what I mean D C
you know what I mean D C
you know what I mean D C G
