[VERSE 1]
Gm F
Main street's empty in the evening chill
Eb F
From courthouse tower to griffin mill
Eb Dm Gm/Bb Gm F/A
Small signs of winter come creeping down the hills
Bb F
I saw your shadow on Jackson St.
Cm Eb
where the zombie-eyed kids and the speed-queens meet
Gm F Cm | | Eb
It's been a long time running through my veins this long lost dream
[CHORUS 1]
F Gm Eb
And I tear it apart and burn it all down 'cause I have to
Cm F Bb Bb/D Eb
God gave me permission to do what it takes to find you
F Gm Eb
All the friends I betrayed all the e - nemies made in the pro - cess
Cm F Bb Bb/D Eb
We've all done the same we're just car - rying dif - ferent cros - ses
Cm
I'm feeling no pain baby, it's acceptable losses
[INTERLUDE 1]

[VERSE 2]
Gm F
This place got dark in the years that passed
Gm Eb F
The store-front's blown; I guess nothing lasts
Eb Dm Gm/Bb Gm | Gm F/A
The fighting at the bars still draw wired, vengeful crowds
Bb F
I followed your trail down to Rosewood Park
Cm Eb
As the shadows grow tall and the stars come out
Gm F Cm | | Eb | |
Where the backseat lovers used to park their daddy's car
[CHORUS 2]
F Gm Eb
And I tear it apart and burn it all down 'cause I have to
Cm F Bb Bb/D Eb
Made a deal with a man at the cross - roads who knew where to find you
F Gm Eb
All the friends I betrayed all the e - nemies made in the pro - cess
Cm F Bb Bb/D Eb
Our pain feels the same; we're just car - rying dif - ferent cros - ses
Cm
It's all in the game, baby, it's acceptable losses

Dm Eb
They found your car down at Suicide Bridge
Bb6 Gm
Where the Johnson twins became newsflash kids
Cm Dm Eb F
But I know you so much better don't believe you'd call it quits
Bb F
Now I got an old address and I'm waiting there
Cm Eb
In the first light of morning at the fire stairs
Gm F Cm | | Eb |
I can hear someone's coming and suddenly I'm scared
[FINAL CHORUS]
F Gm Eb
'Cause you ripped me appart and I ran for my life cause I had to
Cm F Bb Bb/D Eb
My heart won't stop bleeding and I'm no longer sure if I want it to
F Gm Eb
All the friends I betrayed all the e - nemies made in the pro - cess

They're all going down in accounts of accep - table los - ses
