Old College Try

A C#m
From the housetops to the gutters
D E D
From the ocean to the shore
A F#m
The warning signs have all been bright and garish
D E
Far too great in number to ignore

From the cities to the swamplands
From the highways to the hills
Our love has never had a leg to stand on
From the aspirins to the cross-tops to the Elevils

D E A D
But I will walk down to the end with you
A E A
If you will come all the way down with me

From the entrance to the exit
Is longer than it looks from where we stand
I want to say I'm sorry for stuff I haven't done yet
Things will shortly get completely out of hand

I can feel it in the rotten air tonight
In the tips of my fingers, in the skin on my face
In the weak last gasp of the evening's dying light
In the way those eyes I've always loved illuminate this place

D E
Like a trashcan fire in a prison cell
A D
Like the searchlights in the parking lots of hell
A E A D
I will walk down to the end with you
A E A
If you will come all the way down with me
