[A] [B]
[C] [E] [G]
[A] How long, how [F]
[C] long will I slide?
[G]
Separate [A] my side?
[F]
[C] I don't [G]
believe [Am] it's [E] fair
[F] [C] Slitting my [G] throat is all I [A] ever
I heard your voice through [E] a [Em] photograph
[A] I [Am] thought that I'd been [E] brought up [B] the path
[Am] Once you know you [E] can never go back
[G] I gotta take it on [A] the other side
[Am] A century's not [E] what it meant to [Em]
me
[A] [Am] A cemetery where I'll [Em] never see
[A] The strangest things that [E] never changed [Em] my mind
I [G] gotta take it on [A] the other side
[G] Take it on [A] the other side
[G] Take it on,
[A] take it on
How [Em] long, [F] how long will [C] I slide?
[G]
[A] Separate my [F] side?
[C] I don't, [G] I don't [Am] believe it's [C] [F] fair
[C] Slitting my [G] throat is all I [A] ever
I put my life into [Em] a paper [A] cup
The outfit's full and I'm [Em] spilling my [A] guts
She won't even [E] know that my spirit's flood
[G] I gotta take it on [A] the other side
A stylish dog and [E] she's in my bed
[A] A candidate for the [Em] soulmate player
[A] Pulls the trigger [E] and I pull the thread
I [G] gotta take it on [A] the other side
[G] Take it on [A] the other side
[G] Take it on,
[A] take it on

[B] [C] Slitting my [G] throat is all I [E]
ever
Take me on, take me for a ride
Burn me out, leave me on the other side
I yell and tell her that it's not my fault
I've done it, I've done it, I've done it before but I [A] can't
[F] [C]
[Em] [A]
[F] [C] How long, [G] how long will I slide?
Separate [A] my
