"Intermittent, continuous, loud and excessive noise wears a man down!"


Verse 1:
    G          D
As the night time bleeds into the day
   Bm        A
And tomorrow spills across the sky
     G       D
While the sun'??s a harsh reminder why
    Bm      A
We are feeling barely human

Pre-Chorus:
G              D
We don'??t know what'??s good for us
       Bm        A
'Cause if we did, we might not do it
G              D
Who knows where our limits lie?
       Bm        A
We won't discover 'til we push it


Chorus:
D               Bm
I should just walk away, walk away
      A
But it grips me, it grips me
D                Bm
When I should call it a day and make my way
    A
Oh, it grips me
      G        D
'Cause the devil'??s got my arms
    Bm           A
And it pulls me back into the night
   D             Bm
When I should just walk away, away
     A
Oh, it grips me
      G
'Cause the devil's got my arms


Verse 2:
    G       D
We got drunk on this unholy wine
   Bm       A
To deliver us from our old minds
   G      D
The promise of a better time
      Bm       G
'Til we'??re feeling barely human


Pre-Chorus:
G              D
We don't know what's good for us
       Bm        A
'Cause if we did, we might not do it
G              D
Who knows where our limits lie?
      Bm        A
We won'??t discover '??til we push it


Chorus:
D               Bm
I should just walk away, walk away
      A
But it grips me, it grips me
D                Bm
When I should call it a day and make my way
     A
Oh, it grips me
      G        D
'Cause the devil's got my arms
    Bm           A
And it pulls me back into the night
   D             Bm
When I should just walk away, away
     A
Oh, it grips me


Bridge:
D             Bm       A
I would rather forget and wash my memory clean
  D             Bm       A
Oh, I would rather forget and wash my memory clean
D
I would rather forget (I would rather forget)
Bm       A
Wash my memory clean (Wash my memory clean)
D
I would rather forget (I would rather forget)
Bm       A
Wash my memory clean (Wash my memory)


Chorus:
D               Bm
I should just walk away, walk away
      A
But it grips me, it grips me
D                Bm
When I should call it a day and make my way
     A
Oh, it grips me
      G        D
'Cause the devil's got my arms
    Bm           A
And it pulls me back into the night

When I should just walk away, away
    A   D
Oh, it grips me
  G
Woah oh
      G        D
'Cause the devils got my arms
    Bm           A
And it pulls me back into the night
