VERSE 1 (Section 1)
******** 00:20
D G Electric Guitar
Nothing that's forced can ever be right [-----------]
D G [-----------]
If it doesn't come naturally, leave it [-----------]
D G [-5-4-2-----]
That's what she said as she turned out the light [-------0-5-]
Bm F# [-----------]
And we bent our backs as slaves of the night
G Gm
she lowered her guard showed me the scars
D A Bm
She got from trying to fight
G A D G D G
Saying oh, you'd better believe it.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
VERSE 2
********
D G
Well I'm up to my neck in the crumbling wreckage
D G
Of all that I wanted from life (Section 1)
D G
When I looked for respect all I got was neglect
Bm F#
Though I swallowed the lign as a sign of the times
G Gm
But dealing a jack from the back of the pack
D A Bm
They said "You lose again"
G A D
Oh, I said, who needs it

CHORUS
*******
F#
Well don't get me wrong now I tried to get on
Bm A G
With the jokers that got in my way
Gm D
And I put on a smile and I tried all the while to be straight
F#
But they just wanted more all the time and I'm sure
Bm A G
That you know what I mean when I say
Gm A
That I'm sick of the touch and there's only so much you can take.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
VERSE 3
********
D G
Well nothing that's real is ever for free
D G
And you just have to pay for it sometime (Section 1)
D G
She said it before, she said it to me
Bm F#
I suppose she believed there was nothing to see
G Gm
But the same old four imaginary walls
D A Bm
She built for living inside
G A D
I said oh, you just can't mean it

CHORUS
*******
F#
Well there was never a doubt that she had to get out
Bm A G
she was just looking around for a way
Gm D
In the pit of the night there was nowhere to hide any more
F#
She was out on a limb, she was reaching for things
Bm A G
That she wanted, but just couldn't say
Gm A
And she had to be sure that she wouldn't get caught like before.

********
D G
Well nothing that's forced can ever be right
D G
If it doesn't come naturally, leave it (Section 1)
D G
That's what she said as she turned out the light
Bm F#
And she may have been wrong, and she may have been right
G Gm
But I woke with the frost, and noticed she'd lost
D A Bm
The veil that covered her eyes
G A D
I said oh, you can leave it.
