Bridge:
Oh, tEm9his is the eye of the Bm/Dstorm
It's what men in stained raincoats C#7pay for
But in here it is Cmaj7pure, yC6eah
Em9This is the end of the Bm/Dline
I've seen this sC#7toryline
Played C#7out so many times beCmaj7fore C6
Oh Em9that goes in there, then Em9that goes in there_
Then Bm/Dthat goes in there, then Bm/Dthat goes in there_
C#7Oh, and then it's Cmaj7over C6
Em9Oh, what a hell of a Bm/Dshow
But what I want to kC#7now
What exactly do you do for an eCmaj7ncore? C6
'Cos this-is hEm9ardcore
