[D]
My place is of the sun [Bm] and this place is of the dark
[C] I do not feel the romance, [G] I do not catch the spark
[D] My place is of the sun and this place is of the dark
[C] I do not [G] feel the romance, I do not catch the [D] spark
And although when I noticed [A] life was life at my expense
[G] The words of my heart lined [Gm] up like prisoners on a fence
[D] And you came in like needy children tugging at my sleeve
[G] I said I have no way [A] of feeding you solely
[C] There was a time I [G] asked my father for a dollar
[D] And he [C#] gave it a ten [B] dollar [Bm] raise

[D] She [C#] stayed with me [Em] for days
[A] [E]
[G] Now someone's on the cell phone, [Gm] desperate in his [D] pain
Someone's [C#] on the bathroom [Bm] floor doing the cocaine
[C] Someone's got a sphincter [G] on the button in some room
[D] No one can convince me [F#] we aren't gluttons for our doom
[G#] But I tried to make this [G] place my place
I asked for [C] providence to smile upon me [G] with his sweet face
Yeah but I'll [D] tell you
My place is of the [Bm] sun and this place is of the dark
[C] I do not feel [G] the romance, I do not catch the spark
[D] My place is of the sun [Bm] and this place is of the dark
[C] I do not feel [G] the romance, I do not catch the spark
For the prince of darkness [D] any longer
Maybe there's no haven in [G] this world for tender age
My heart beat like the wings [Gm] of wild birds in a cage
[D] My greatest hope, my greatest cause to grieve
[G] And my heart flew from its cage [E] and it bled upon my sleeve
[C] The cries of a passer [G]-would I hear in the native [D] earland
I [C#] couldn't hear them [Em] all the [G]
distance between heaven's ceiling
[D] And he almost [C#] pulled me [Em] under
[B] [A]
[G] Someone's on [Gm] the telephone desperate in his pain
