[E]
[A] [B]
[C#m] There's a house where prisoners worship [A] Where honest [B] men confess
I [C#m] admit I was a thief [A] To the darkness [B] in my chest
[E] I admit it to the thrill Of the killing that I've [E] done
[E] was funny, man, it was tragic The [A] kind of [B] person [E] I'd become
[A] would help you up a ladder To [B] watch you dangle [E] some metal
[A] And I would shine a light upon you To [F#m] make you [B] see a ray of hope
