Intro:
B          D  C
(tab for the intro can be found on the bottom)
 
 
Verse 1:
 
B            F# G       E
This morning I made the call
B         F#  G   E
The one that ends it all
B        F#   G      E
Hanging up,I wanted to cry
B        F#     G        E
But dammit,this well's gone dry
A       E   F    C
Not for the money,
A       E  F     C
Not for the fame
B     F# G    E
Not for the power,
B     F# G    E
Just no more games
 
 
Chorus 1:
 
B       F#  G           E          F#       D D B
But now I'm safe in the eye of the tornado
B       F#  G                E           F#        D D B
I can't replace the lies,that let a 1000 days ago
B       F#    G              E                F#         D D B
No more living trapped inside in her way I'll surely die
B   F#   G        E       F#
In the eye of the tornado, blow me away
 
 
(play the first part of the verse rhythm twice before the lyrics continue [B F# G E])
 
Verse 2:
 
B           F#  G         E
You'll grow to loathe my name
B        F#     G       E
You'll hate me just the same
B     F#   G         E
You won't need your breath
B       F#     G          E
And soon you'll meet your death
A        E   F     C
Not from the years 
A        E  F    C
Not from the use
B        F#  G   E
Not from the tears 
B         F#  G  E
Just self abuse
 
 
Chorus 2:
 
B       F#  G           E          F#       D D B
But now I'm safe in the eye of the tornado
B       F#  G                E           F#        D D B
I can't replace the lies,that let a 1000 days ago
B       F#    G              E                F#         D D B
No more living trapped inside in her way I'll surely die
B   F#   G        E       F#
In the eye of the tornado, blow me away
 
 
Post-Chorus:
 
B           F# G              B      F#  G   D
Who's to say,      what's for me to say
B           F# G              B      F#  G   D
Who's to say,      what's for me to be
A           E  F              A      E   F   C
Who's to say,      what's for me to do
B           F# G              B      F#  G   D  B
Cause a big nothing it'll be for me
 
 
Outro:
 
(play intro)
B
The land of opportunity
 
The golden chance for me
 
My future looks so bright
 
Now I think I've seen the light
 
(guitar solo)
 
B
Can't say what's on my mind
 
Can't do what I really feel
 
In this bed I made for me
 
Is where I sleep,I really feel
 
(instrumental break)
 
B
I warn you of the fate
 
Proven true to late
 
Your tongue twist perverse
 
Come drink now of this curse
 
And now I fill your brain
 
I spin you round again
 
My poison fills your head
 
As I tuck you into bed
 
You feel my fingertips
 
You won't forget my lips
 
You'll feel my cold breath
 
It's the kiss of death
 
(instrumental outro)

              This morning I made the call
The one that ends it all
Hanging up I wanted to cry
But dammit this well's gone dry
Not for the money, not for the fame
Not for the power, just no more games

But, now I'm safe in the eye of the tornado
I can't replace the lies that let a thousand days go
No more living trapped inside
In her way I'll surely die
In the eye of the tornado, blow me away

You'll grow to loathe my name
You'll hate me just the same
You won't need your breath
And soon you'll meet your death
Not from the years, not from the use
Not from the tears, just self-abuse

But, now I'm safe in the eye of the tornado
I can't replace the lies that let a thousand days go
No more living trapped inside
In her way I'll surely die
In the eye of the tornado, blow me away

Who's to say what's for me to say
Who's to say what's for me to be
Who's to say what's for me to do
Cause a big nothing it'll be for me

The land of opportunity
The golden chance for me
My future looks so bright
Now, I think I've seen the light

Can't say what's on my mind
Can't do what I really feel
In this bed I made for me
Is where I sleep, I really feel

I warn you of the fate, proven true too late
Your tongue twists perverse, come drink now of this curse
And now I fill your brain, I spin you round again
My poison fills your head as I tuck you into bed
You feel my fingertips, you won't forget my lips
You'll feel my cold breath; it's the kiss of death
