 A cemetery where I marry the sea
Am                           Em
 Stranger things could never change my mind

 I've got to take it on the otherside

Am                   Em
 Pour my life into a paper cup 
Am                           Em
 The ashtray's full and I'm spillin' my guts 
Am                       Em
 She wants to know am I still a slut 
             G              Am        Am    Am
 I've got to take it on the otherside

Am                         Em
 Scarlet starlet and she's in my bed 
Am                  Em
 A candidate for my soul mate bled 
Am                    Em
 Push the trigger and pull the thread 
             G              Am
 I've got to take it on the otherside

chords are good, but the html makes this look sloppy and it's missing a few lines of verse at the end. namely "turn me on, take me for a hard ride" etc.

If you want to use the original strumming pattern of the song, yes. If not, you can play it using this one : DDUUDU
