I Wonder

Em D C
I wonder if I ever feel this way again
The hurting stops me from going insane
I’ll break my promise to never tell you
Hiding feelings in a place outside my brain
D C
It crossed my mind It made me blind
I had to leave it all behind
Em D C
Will I ever see the future with a smile
Will I ever see the sun once in a while
There’s no way out, no way out for me
There’s no place else to be
D C D C
It crossed my mind It made me blind I had to leave it all behind
Am G D C
I’m getting stronger by the minute
Am G D
I’m getting tougher every time 2x
Em D C instr
D C D C
It crossed my mind It made me blind I had to leave it all behind
Am G D C Am G D
I’m getting tougher every time I.m getting stronger by the minute 2x

Descent
Em Csus
In the corner where no-one sees
In the darkness there’s no release
There’s no light, no light for me
There’s no life for me
D C
Em Csus
Feel the heat is getting hotter
Nowhere to run, going under
Spinning round in the fuzz
Hear no sound just a buzz
D C
Csus Em
I will descent, I will sleep
I will crawl, I will weep
I’m going to crawl
Em Csus 6x (2x Edwin 4x solo) D C 1x
Em Csus
In a deep hole I will sleep
In a castle I will keep
No more tears to weep
D C
Em G Am C 2x
Em sus 4x Em

I Need More Enemies
02:08
|

Ring down the curtain
Cause I know I’m in
I went down to the bottom
To get on top again
I’m gonna fortify my fortress
I’m gonna hold it on my own
When will I see my bed again
I don’t know anymore
At sundown I’ll be ready
To play the crying game
I need more enemies
I need more enemies
I need more enemies
I need more enemies
enemies
Bring on the death squad
Come on give me your best
I’m alive and I’m kicking
I won’t settle for less
And while I’m waiting for the mayhem
To unfold in all its gore
I just can’t help but wonder
What I keep smiling for
At sundown I’ll be ready
To play the crying game
I need more enemies
I need more enemies
I need more enemies
I need more enemies
enemies

C D
Walking away on a shady lane with tall trees on each side
Going away I hope to gain back my peace of mind
I’ve told the story so many times I don’t know where to start
You might have seen my love still shines You’re still in my heart
Em G Em C Am
See my heart is burning never again walking down the lane
Em G
See my love is not wearing down
Em C D
Walking down the shady lane
C D
Walking down the shady lane Walking away from this burning pain

Walking down the shady lane Walking down the shady lane
Em G Em C Am
See my heart is burning never again walking down the lane
Em G
See my love is not wearing down

A G Fis
I’m pretty sure that I’m awake although I could be sleeping
I can’t be thinking straight, think it’s too late now
E I’m going the wrong way
A I’m going out loud
E Leaving the same way
A There’s no way out
I’m not sure if I’m awake sun ain’t shining anymore
I want back those sunny days, days grow darker more and more
E There’s no wrong way
A There’s no way out
E I scream and shout out
A There’s no way out
G A G Gis No way out (spoken)
Solo A G Fis G
A B C I can’t escape, can’t get away. I have to leave, I can’t stay

It’s my fault I don’t understand Traveling this dark land
There’s no way, is this the end? There’s no way out NO WAY OUT
E A
There’s no way out

Nothing ever really changes
D A Em G
Can’t get away from here I’m stuck in this hole
I hate to wait The hours go slow
I hesitate I should have known

I should have been there in the end

I’m gonna write my letter now
I’m gonna write the words you really need to hear
G D A
I’m gonna write my letter now 2x (2e x staccato)

When I’m looking at the way things were
I realize that nothing ever really changes
You will go your way and I’ll go mine
D A Em
You know that nothing ever really changes
Refrein

I’m moving slow Just show me where to go 2x

I’m gonna write my letter now
I’m gonna write the words you really need to hear 3x

Em D A Em A
I’m breaking all the bones And I’m falling into the water
Your problem is unknown But no-one really bothers
And what you go to show It’s like none of the others

It’s gonna take me back to the north
I’m gonna sail a boat back home
To a not so distant shore

C Bb
There's gonna be a riot They are revving up by the pool
C Bb
Heads are getting hot But I keep it cool
C Bb
Come over in the backyard You can find me in the shade
C Bb
In an easy chair with ice cold lemonade
F Eb Bb
I'm a shadow man
F Eb Bb
I'm a shadow man
F
Don't need no lotion
Ab G
I never have a tan
G C
'cause I'm a shadow man
C Bb
I like to take it easy Laying low from nine to five
C Bb
But when the sun goes down I come alive
C Bb
Don't listen to the preacher Better savor life while you can
C Bb
That's the rallying cry for the league of shadow men

Standing Solitary Tough

C Am Em G
There’s a flower in the middle of the field
It is golden and it shines
There’s a bitter man, he tells you how he feels
He never draws outside the lines
F G Am Am
But he never gives up hope
F G Am G
We should never give up hope
Em D C
I will come to your door
I will walk every floor
I will know who you are
D
Who you are
C Am Em G (solo 2x)
Moonlight shines through the branches of the trees
Never know when it’s enough
Like the flower in the middle of the field
Standing solitary tough
2 en 3 ( 5x Em D C 1x D)

Stay On Course
04:17
|
|||
|
You were wading through the debris
With a monkey on your back
I guess you’re never on a roll, man
On your way down to the river
You got beaten up again
But that didn’t make you hold back
You were riding through the jungle
In a rusty four-by-four
You had to work there in a goldmine
Some bandits took your money
You got battered with a knife
But you got back on your feet, man
Find a way through the fire
Find a path through the moor
Get ready for the journey and saddle up your horse
Stay on course
And now you’re stranded in the desert
In a worn-out motel
Coming down with a bad fever
With your genius for bad luck
You never got much rest
But at least you managed to get this far
