Verse:

------

[lots of Eb7 riffs all over the place]

 

Something in me, dark and sticky

All the time it's getting strong

No way of dealing with this feeling

Can't go on like this too long

 

Bridge:

-------

This time you've gone too far

 

This time you've gone too far

 

This time you've gone too far,

 

I told you, I told you, I told you, I told you

D#

 

[repeat]

 

Don't talk back, just drive the car

Gb/Eb-Db/Eb-Gb/Eb Ab/C-Absus4/Db-Ab/Db

 

Shut your mouth, I know what you are

Gb/Eb-Db/Eb-Gb/Eb Ab/C-Absus4/Db-Ab/Db

 

Don't say nothing, keep your hands on the wheel

Gb/Eb-Db/Eb-Gb/Eb

Ab/C-Absus4/Db

 

Don't turn around, this is for real

Ab/Db Gb/Eb-Db/Eb-Gb Ab/C-Absus4/Db

 

Chorus:

-------

Digging in the dirt

A#m G#

 

Stay with me I need support

C# F# C#/F G#

 

I'm digging in the dirt

A#m G#

 

Find the places I got hurt

C# F# C#/F G#

 

Open up the places I got hurt

A#m F# C#/F G#

 

[verse]

The more I look, the more I find

As I close on in, I get so blind

I feel it in my head, I feel it in my toes

I feel it in my sex, that's the place it goes

 

[bridge]

 

[chorus x2]

 

Digging in the dirt, to find the places we got hurt...

[Eb7 riffs, repeat to end]
