Damascus

Intro : A Em/Add9 Gmaj7 A A Em/Add9 Gmaj7/D A Verse : A Em7 G A years ago , you said to me , "i think i’m losing the fight , or the fight’s losing me , i’m not certain , " and here we are - the closing scenes , and all the house lights come up , oh , the falling of our final curtain . . . prechorus : Bm E F#m Gmaj7 i’ve played a role for so long that i’ve forgotten myself , but i said i’d be there and i’m keeping my word , you’ve played yourself so well , and now i want to be you , a great imitation of losing my nerve . Chorus : A Em7 Gmaj7 A oh , it’s over , and everything is wrong , everything has gone , and i know that everything means nothing , oh , it’s over , but i don’t want to fight , i don’t want to be right , i know that everything means nothing , Bm Gmaj7 A on the road to damascus they fell . i saw the light - i saw the light! but hey , it never saw me , oh , conversation has just left me heathen , and we could wait a thousand years , perhaps a million or more , if it’s worth waiting for , but i’m leaving , so on to a mecca of earthly delights , depression is only desire deprived , once more unto the breach and fxxk my getting it right , we’ve died for so long , let’s just get out alive . ’cause it’s over , and everything is wrong , everything has gone , and i know that everything means nothing , oh , it’s over , but i don’t want to fight , i don’t want to be right , i know that everything means nothing , on the road to damascus they fell , well i’ve been to damascus . Bridge : Gmaj7 F#m it’s hell , hell is where i’m gonna be , the devil my intimate friend , and hell is other people’s hearts , and knowing that everything must end . oh , it’s over . . . and everything is wrong , everything has gone , and i know that everything means nothing , oh , it’s over , but i don’t want to fight , i don’t want to be right , i know that everything means nothing , on the road to damascus they fell , well , i’ve been to damascus as well .
