Said "I, I gotta do somethin' about where we're goin'"
D
  Stepped on steam train
G
  Stepped out of the driving rain, maybe

Sweet the sin, bitter the taste in my mouth
D                                G
  I see seven towers, but I only see one way out
          D
You gotta cry without weeping, talk without speaking
G
scream without raising your voice

You know I took the poison

Oooooooooooo,  Ooo Ooo Ooo  Oooooo

Verse 3:

D
She runs through the streets with eyes painted red
G
Under a black belly of clouds in the rain
D
in through a doorway, she brings me
G
white gold and pearls stolen from the sea
       D                           G
she is raging she is raging and storm blows up in her eyes

Ending Chorus:

She will,
A          C/G    G        A
suffer the needle chill,
                 C/G  G   D
She's running to stand,   still.

Harmonica Riff played over D and G chord progression to end song.
