[E]
[Em]
No one knows [G] what it's like to [D] be the bad man, to [C] be the sad man, [A] behind blue eyes
[Em] No one knows [G] what it's like to be [D] hidden, to [C] be faded, to [A] tell lonely lies
But [C] my [D] dreams, they are [G] as empty as [C] my conscience [D]
seems [E] to be
I [Bm] have hours when I'm [C] only lonely, but love [D] is vengeance that's [A] never free
[E] No one knows what [G] it's like to feel these [D] feelings like I [C] do, and I [A] blame you
[E] No one bites back as [G] hard on their [D] anger, not if my [C] pain alone can [A] show through
But
[C] my [D] dreams, they are [G] as empty as [C] my conscience [D]
seems [G] to [E] be
[Bm] I have hours when I'm only [C] lonely, but love [D] is vengeance that's [A] never free
[E]
[A] [E] [Bm]
[E] When my [Bm] fist clenches, [A] crack it [E] open, before [Bm] I [G] use it and lose [D] my cool
If I [Bm]
[A] smile, tell me [D] some bad news, [Bm] before I laugh [A] and I act [E] like a fool
[Bm] And
[A] [E] if [Bm] I swallow [A] anything [E] evil, [Bm] put your [G] finger down [D] my throat
And if [Bm] I [A] shiver, please give me [D] a blanket, keep me [Bm] warm and [A] let me wear [E] your coat
[Bm]
[A] [E] No [Bm]
[A] [B] [A] [G] [D]
[B] [A] [G] [D]
[B] [A] [G]
[D] [Bm] [B]
[E] one knows what it's [G] like to [D] be the bad man, to [C] be the sad man, [A] behind blue eyes
