Bb    Eb
And the blood comes running down
    Bb                         F    Gm F
The bleeding edge, the killing ache,
                      Bb     Eb
Red and purple on the ground.
Bb                    F
When the old illusion dies
                         Bb
In the cold, cold light of day
                     F    F7
In your mind you realize
                         Bb
But your heart will not obey.

[Chorus 1]
Bb                       Eb
This is it, you can't go on
                        Bb      D7 Gm
Now that the miracle is gone,ooh
                         F
But innocence is still a part
        F7              Bb
Of your sore and tender heart
                     F
We all come and we depart
                             Bb
The strangers we were at the start.

[Verse 2]
Bb                        F
That forever knot comes undone
                                Bb
Your crystal ship drifts in the fog
                 Eb      F
And your soul is hit and run
                            Bb
And the thruth bites like a dog, oh yeah
Gm   F   Eb   Gm   F   Eb Ebm6 Ebm Bb
U hu hu huuu, U yeah ye

[Bridge]
Bb                           Eb
And this is it, you can't go on
                        Bb   D7     Gm
Now that the miracle is gone, gone, gone
                            F
But innocence still plays a part
                        Bb
In your sore and tender heart.

[Chorus 2]
Bb                    Eb
Maybe you just got it wrong
                              Bb   D7 Gm
Misunderstood things from the start
                     F
But the magic was to strong
                              Eb
You couldn't hide your tender heart
                        F      Eb
And we all come and we depart
                             Bb
The strangers we were at the start, mmmmmm.
