Sitting on a futon mat in a squat in Darmstadt. Kevin Seconds said to me in passing.
F                                 Dm                              C        
"Age never meant sh*t to me. It's all about heart and stupidity." I thought that there's no better way to

live.
        F                               Dm                                 C
We were on the steps in Borno. When she bit my lip and choked my throat. A hi-ball glass shattered above 
    G
our heads.
              F                                       Dm                                C
It seemed her lover listened through the walls. While we we were kissing, arm in arm. I left and spent the
               G
night alone instead.


Chorus:

            F                                G               C            E            Am
I couldn't tell you dear, which one whispers in my ear.  The Devil or St. Andrew but I know it's time to go.
    F                                       G                                          C  
I'm sure you've got a great theory.  If I'm huntin' something or it's haunting me.  I know there ain't no
E            Am   C        F         Fm      C 
right way to mea-sure the globe.  Oh no.  Oh no.

Are these visions of Heaven or nightmares I'm havin'?  All I know is I'm scared of the truth.
