Written the morning after going 'insane'

lyrics

On The Blacker Side Of Wrong

C
There's an anger tighter than a fist
C7 F
To name the whys would make the longest list
Fm C A7
I have thoughts as from where they might have come
D7 G7
But right now, I can't name a single one

F C A7 Dm Dm/C
It's proving hard, I'm almost long, long gone
Bb7 F A7 Gm C7 F G7
Oh my God, I'm on the blacker side of wrong

C
So it's back to the mask and the iron shoal
C7 F
It's back to the costume for the very next role
Fm C A7
The one where the psycho tries to play
D7 G7
A saner person from day to day

F C A7 Dm Dm/C
It's proving hard, I'm almost long, long gone
Bb7 F A7 Gm C7 F F7
Oh my God, I'm on the blacker side of wrong

Bb7 F
Did you notice that I could turn?
Bb7 F C G7 Fm G7
Did you think that such a flower could burn?

C
My footfalls on this planet are slight
C7 F
But where I tred I hope I tred with light
Fm C A7
I can't deny there's purpose in my stroll
D7 G7
But every step just further cracks the soul

F C A7 Dm Dm/C
It's proving hard, I'm almost long, long gone
Bbm7 F A7 Gm C7 F D7
Oh my God, I'm on the blacker side of wrong
Gm C7 F D7
I'm on the blacker side of wrong
Bb7 C7 F F7
I'm on the blacker side of wrong
