[Intro] E  E9

E                                B6
When they gave you roses and believed your wild excuses
          A           E
You were sealing the deal
E
Halfway down the road and ain't it
B6
Funny how the ghosts they fade and
 A          G#m
Suddenly appear

A              F#
 You went too far
                        E          A
Oh, woman, now you're feeling the fear
                                  E    A
'Cause you've never been alone before, oh
                        E    A
And the wolf is at the door, oh
                        E                    G#m        A
Now it's better if you hold your breath and don't look down
        F#            Asus2   E        E9
At the pages of your paper  crown

E                                    B6
You reached out for more and as the waves hit at the shore you felt
     A              E
The fading of your will
E                               B6
Choke back the matter from the bottom of the ladder ask me
A               G#m
If I love you still
  
A              F#
 You went too far
                        E          A
Oh, woman, now you're feeling the fear
                                  E    A
'Cause you've never been alone before, oh
                        E    A
And the wolf is at the door, oh
                              E     G#m  A
And the hounds of hell, they won't lie  down
       F#             Asus2  E
On the ashes of your paper crown
 
B                            A
 In the bright light of the sun
                        E        D        A
Will you make sure everyone can see your face?
B                              A
 You make fun of everyone who falls
                        E      D      A   F#
And meantime they were saving you a place

A                                 E    A
'Cause you've never been alone before, oh
                        E    A
And the wolf is at the door, oh
                             E  G#m A
And the talking heads don't make a sound
       F#             Asus2  E
At the aging of your paper crown
      F#                       A
It's better if you don't look down
        F#            Asus2  E
At the pages of your paper crown
