Road To Ruin

Tom: G

G
 I used to hear the silence, I used to hear the chime
Am                         Em
 Way down in the gold mine, I could see a light shine
G
 Now I don't even notice, The water from the wine
Am                        Em
 With a frozen conscience, In a fallow mind

[Pre-Chorus]
C                   G
  Yeah, I'm going away
C                    Em D
 Just a little each day  and I
C                     G
  Yeah I burn with desire
        Am
I can't wait anymore
      D
I'mma go ..out.. on fire

[Chorus]
G
 Down and down again
Bm
 We're on the road to ruin
Em
 But I've still got some love to make
        C
And I've still got a heart to break
G
 Oh, I'll never understand
Bm
 But I still wanna hold your hand
Em
 We're on the road to ruin
C                            G
 Oh will we ever get home again?
     Bm       Em  C
Ooh - oh, ohh, ohh we're on the road to ruin
G     Bm       Em  C
 Ooh - oh, ohh, ohh we're on the road to ruin

[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
G
 A complicated wildness, waist deep in the soul
Am
 Never brought you any kindness
Em
 Couldn't get you their home
G
 Bed barren and stolen, Headlights in your eyes
Am
 Oh couldn't make you stay golden
Em
 Couldn't stall your demise

[Pre-Chorus 2]
C                  G
 Yeah, I'm going away
C                                Em D
 Feels like a little more every day  and I
C                      G
 And I don't wanna let go
        Am         
So I'll hold on to war
        D
And let blood on the floor, yeah

[Chorus]
G
 Down and down again
Bm
 We're on the road to ruin
Em
 But I've still got some love to make
        C
And I've still got a heart to break
G
 Oh, I'll never understand
Bm
 But I still wanna hold your hand
Em
 We're on the road to ruin
C                            G
 Oh will we ever get home again?
     Bm       Em  C
Ooh - oh, ohh, ohh we're on the road to ruin
G     Bm       Em  C
 Ooh - oh, ohh, ohh we're on the road to ruin

[Bridge]
Am  C                    Em
    A-ah and when we're gone
D     G                 C     Am
 Just tell them we were gold once
   D    C   C
So gold
