Am Em
I thought it up and brought up the past
Am Em
Once you know you can never go back
G A
I've got to take it on the otherside

A cemetery where I marry the sea

G
Take it on
A
Take it on

Am Em
She wants to know am I still a slut
G A
I've got to take it on the otherside
[Verse 4]

Scarlet starlet and she's in my bed
Am Em
A candidate for my soul mate bled

Take it on the otherside
G
Take it on
A
Take it on
