PALE BLUE WALLS

My friend take a long look behind you 1-2
This room has been home for far too long 1-2

The cracks along these pale blue walls
have moved into your eyes 1-2
Wipe the tears from your dirty cheek
and the blood from your hands 1-2

Curse the ground before the sky 1
Soon enough you'll know better
Drink to your fill and be wicked 1
Until you can be strong 2

(Am- F)

Salvation's eyes have turned away from you
So hedge up your bets now or follow me through 2
You'll find out the hard way that there's only one truth 1
When you pick up a bible or a bottle 2

And time will tell if your season in hell 1
Has paved your way to the hereafter 2
Broken and bent discarded and spent 1
your tears are mistaken for laughter 2

So smash out the windows I'll break down the door 1
Liquor sweet liquor I can't take any more 2
I'm burnt out and blind just as black as before 1
No one hears you lie in the gutter 2
