The Poison

Chords
pin

(Intro) 
G C G C

(Verse 1)
            G
You were so young,
And I guess im old.
          C
Open your eyes,
Ill keep mine closed.
         G
I prefer standing,
And you take your seat.
       C
Ill be wide awake,
You'll be asleep.

(Chorus)
                Em   D
And you'll fall down
     C
A hole
            Em     D     
That's the one place 
               C
That we both know
             Em             D                     C
You take me with you if you could, but I wouldn't go
             Em                      C         D
I guess sometimes we both loose our minds, to find a better road.

G C G C

(Verse 2)
         G
I can be pensive,
You can be so sure.
              C
You'll be the poison,
You'll be the cure.
                  G
I'm alone on the journey,
I'm alive none the less,
             C
And when you do your very worst,
Mmmmm it feels the best.

(Chorus)
                Em   D
And you'll fall down
     C
A hole
            Em    D 
That's the one place 
               C
That we both know.
            Em               D                    C
You take me with you if you could, but I wouldn't go.
            Em                       C           D
I guess sometimes we both loose our minds, and find a better road.

G x2

(Chorus)
                Em   D   
And you'll fall down
    C
A hole
           Em                D                  C
That's the one place in this world that we both know.

# I have no idea what do do with the bridgem or the segue into it. 
# Any assistance would be much appreciated)

(Outro)
               G   G/f#  Em              
So you'll fall down 
     C
A hole
           G   G/f#   Em 
Thats the one place
               C
That we both know
            G        G/f#     Em                   C
You take me with you  if  you could but I wouldn't go.
             Em                        C       D             G
I guess sometimes, we both loose our minds to find a better road.
