Chorus: 
How long how long will I slide 
Separate my side I don-t 
I don-t believe it-s bad 
Slit my throat 
It-s all I ever 
 
Verse:
Am                               E
I heard your voice through a photograph 
Am                              E
I thought it up it brought up the past 
Am                           E
Once you know you can never go back 
             G                Am
I-ve got to take it on the otherside 
Am                           E
Centuries are what it meant to me 
Am                         E 
A cemetery where I marry the sea 
Am                                  E
Stranger things could never change my mind 
             G                Am
I-ve got to take it on the otherside 
G                Am
Take it on the otherside 
G
Take it on 
Am
Take it on 
 
Chorus 
 
Pour my life into a paper cup 
The ashtray-s full and I-m spillin- my guts 
She wants to know am I still a slut 
I-ve got to take it on the otherside 
 
Scarlet starlet and she-s in my bed 
A candidate for my soul mate bled 
Push the trigger and pull the thread 
I-ve got to take it on the otherside 
Take it on the otherside 
Take it on 
Take it on 
 
Chorus 
 
Turn me on take me for a hard ride 
Burn me out leave me on the otherside 
I yell and tell it that 
It-s not my friend 
I tear it down I tear it down 
And then it-s born again 
 
Chorus 
 
How long I don-t believe it-s bad 
Slit my throat 
It-s all I ever
