G Em A Bm A
[Verse 1]
G
Love is better
Em A Bm A
When you're blind and you can't see the cracks
G
I was the number one contender
Em A Bm A
Now my bitter tears won't leave no tracks
G Em A Bm A
G
Nothing lasts forever
Em A Bm A
We used to paint this town red - now all I see is black
G
I know you think you're doing better
Em A Bm A
But the winner of the rat race is still a rat
[Chorus]
C
Oh, am I speaking in tongues?
Em
Have I got it all wrong?
G
With you and me
D/F#
You and me
C
The devil cares for his own
Em
So there's a place for us both
Dsus4 D
You and me
Dsus4 D
You and me
G Em A Bm A
[Verse 2]
G
I see a vapour trail above me
Em A Bm A
I know the next move's mine and the odds are stacked
G
If I could tell you my story
Em A Bm A
It would only make you doubt everything we ever had
[Chorus 2]
C
Oh, am I speaking in tongues?
Em
Have I got it all wrong?
G
With you and me
D/F#
You and me
C
The devil cares for his own
Em
So there's a place for us both
Dsus4 D
You and me,
Dsus4 D
You and me
C
Oh, every nest you've ever kicked
Em
And every knife I let you twist
Dsus4 D
Feels like a wrecking ball
Dsus4 D
A wrecking ball
C
Oh, every nest you've ever kicked
Em
And every knife I let you twist
G
You'll learn
[Bridge]
G Em Bm A
G Em
Is it all for nothing?
Bm A
Is it all for nothing?
G Em
Is it all for nothing?
Bm
Is it all for nothing?
A G
The web you weave unravels itself
Em
It's all for nothing
Bm
It's all for nothing
[Chorus 3]
C
Oh, am I speaking in tongues?
Em
Have I got it all wrong?
Dsus4 D
With you and me
Dsus4 D
You and me
C
The devil cares for his own
Em
So there's a place for us both
Dsus4 D
You and me,
Dsus4 D
You and me
C
Oh, every nest you've ever kicked
Em
And every knife I let you twist
Dsus4 D
Feels like a wrecking ball
Dsus4 D
A wrecking ball
C
Oh, every nest you've ever kicked
Em
And every knife I let you twist
G
You'll learn
[Outro]
G Em A
It's all for nothing
Bm
It's all for nothing
A G
The web you weave unravels itself
