[Verse 1]
Crazy Dheart, where Ghave you Dgone?
AI thought that you and me were really Ggetting Dalong
DLeft alone to Gdread the Ddawn,
ALike some kind of science experiGment gone Dwrong
I could've made GhistoryD  
Now I've been made GhistoryD  
Who knew that Gvictory Dcould be so GslipperyD?
Cover the thick blood stainGs A  
on your sick young brainG  A  
Just take your Ritalin G  A  
and then you can play the old hits aAgain
[Verse 1]
DYou explained the Gabyss awayD,
AI can't listen when you say you're not mGissing meD  
DYou kissed me in the bGlustering Dheat rAight there on the street,
With tears on my gGlistening cheeDk
GNow, no one listens to meD, they tell me I'm tGwisted and weaDk
GI see that I was picked to Dbe the picture in the GdictionaryD  
Look up, 'Addicted' that's GmeA  
Then look up, 'Wicked diseaGse'A  
Then look up, 'Sick of PolicGe'A  
Then look up, 'Victim' closeGly A

[Bridge 1]
AI meet the mystery beast,
ASame one my sister receives
AHe comes to burgeon and beat, demands me Gon both Dknees
AHe will not admit defeat when he pricks, I'm gonna bleed
Aand I can race fist or flee,
ASoon shoutin' GNo, mister Dplease!
As he destroys the Gdiseases Aas though Jesus could see uGsA  
High up in the cathedraGl wAhere an evil heart freezesG  A  
And even the Gdevil would start to Abelieve when the man without Gequal
from the Apulp it Dpreaches
YGou gotta bAelieve can tell you the sDecrets
[Bridge 2]
ASmiling through limitless rage
AViolently neutered and caged
AStuffed with subliminal hate
ANothing but a puppet at play, crying in a Gbeautiful plDace
Another burial dGisplay Aon a man visible in a legal-ish spaGce A  
AIt's the usual way within a week of Wednesday 
[Outro]
Crazy Dheart, where Ghave you Dgone?
AI thought that you and me 
AI thought that you and me 
AI thought that you and me were really Ggetting Dalong

Crazy heart, where have you gone?

Left alone to dread the dawn,

A G D

Like some kind of science experiment gone wrong

G D

I could've made history

G D

Now I've been made history

G D G D

Who knew that victory could be so slippery?

G A

Cover the thick blood stains

G A

on your sick young brain

Just take your Ritalin

and then you can play the old hits again

[Verse 1]

D G D

You explained the abyss away,

A G D

I can't listen when you say you're not missing me

D G D A

You kissed me in the blustering heat right there on the street,

G D

With tears on my glistening cheek

G D G D

Now, no one listens to me, they tell me I'm twisted and weak

G D G D

I see that I was picked to be the picture in the dictionary

G A

Look up, 'Addicted' that's me

G A

Then look up, 'Wicked disease'

G A

Then look up, 'Sick of Police'

G A

Then look up, 'Victim' closely

[Bridge 1]

I meet the mystery beast,

Same one my sister receives

A G D

He comes to burgeon and beat, demands me on both knees

He will not admit defeat when he pricks, I'm gonna bleed

and I can race fist or flee,

A G D

Soon shoutin' No, mister please!

G A G A

As he destroys the diseases as though Jesus could see us

G A G A

High up in the cathedral where an evil heart freezes

G A G

And even the devil would start to believe when the man without equal

A D

from the pulp it preaches

G A D

You gotta believe can tell you the secrets

[Bridge 2]

Smiling through limitless rage

Violently neutered and caged

Stuffed with subliminal hate

A G D

Nothing but a puppet at play, crying in a beautiful place

G A G A

Another burial display on a man visible in a legal-ish space

It's the usual way within a week of Wednesday

[Outro]

D G D

Crazy heart, where have you gone?

I thought that you and me

A G D

I thought that you and me were really getting along
