G D Am Asus2 As I took step number four
G D Am Asus2 Into the close of your tenement
G D Am Asus2 You cast your darkened eyes so low
G D Am Asus2 Said we're cold as the step cement
 
 
 
G C G D Am But I just don't know... oh what you meant
Asus2 G D Am Asus2 What you meant...
 
 
 
G D Am Asus2 So Alec you may want a pill
G D Am Asus2 We are so cruel and to communicate
G D Am Asus2 Without the red stuff being spilled
G D Am Asus2 We must MDMA our sentiment
 
 
 
G C G D Am But I just don't know... oh what you meant
Asus2 G D Am Asus2 What you meant...
 
 
 
G D Am Am
 
 
 
 
G D Am Asus2 If we were feckless we'd be fine
G D Am Asus2 Sucking hard on our innocence
G D Am Asus2 But we've been bright in our decline
G D Am Asus2 Been left as blackened filament
 
 
 
G C G D Am But I just don't know... oh what you meant
Asus2 G D Am Asus2 What you meant...
G D Am Asus2Mmm-mmm
 
 
 
G D Am Asus2 Because I feel blood inside the vein
G D Am Asus2 I feel life inside the ligament
G D Am Asus2 I feel alive yeah just the same
G D Am Asus2 Same vigour and the same intent
 
 
 
G C G D Am (strum once and hold)
So I just don't know if that's what you meant
