Verse (Riff#2)
D A BmI can't seem to see the seal we're breaking, I can't seem to see the seal we broke
G AI refuse to recognize your views,
D A BmSomeone shouted "Everything's for nothing", somebody shouted, "All is lost"
G ABut I can't buy that nonsense too
D A Bm Way back when the prophecies began, do you think they really had a master plan
G A Or were they merely writing fables, stories?
D A Bm I don't know but it has occurred to me, the punishment that they threaten constantly
G A (A) It's only real if they could just convince me
D Bm G AWe're going down, down, down to Mephisto's Cafe
D Bm G ADown, down, down to Mephisto's Café. We're going down !
D Bm G AAnd the gears will spin and the sinners sin, but at least we'll give them hell
D Bm G AAnd the righteous few will spit on you, so bid them all farewell
D Bm G AWe're going down, down, down to Mephisto's Cafe
D Bm (B_A_G_F#_A~)We're going down (Right?) (Right!)
Verse (Riff#2)
D A BmSo fuck the flocks of sheep that keep amassing masses
G AAsses being led so far astray
D A BmAnd I won't claim to believe the things I read, black books or agenda magazine
G A I'd rather see in shades of gray
Bridge (Same as intro)
G Bm F# D If I were you, I would take this as a sign
G Bm F# D Believe it's true, we were never meant to fly
--->(Acapella)or same the end of the intro part (see above)<--- And I knew you when you were you Before they twisted all your views Before you came unglued Chorus
D Bm G AWe're going down, down, down to Mephisto's Cafe
D Bm G ADown, down, down to Mephisto's Café. We're going down !
D Bm G AAnd the gears will spin and the sinners sin, but at least we'll give them hell
D Bm G AAnd the righteous few will spit on you, so bid them all farewell
D Bm G AWe're going down, down, down to Mephisto's Cafe

D A Bm Bm_A_G Now everybody's telling taller tales
G_G#_AAnd I don't know who to believe
D A Bm Bm_A_GOk, if your father really loves you more
G_G#_AWhat about the other families?
D A Bm Bm_A_G G_G#_A Finally, I met a man with kindness in his eyes and fire in his heart
D A Bm Bm_A_G He said you'll never have to choose a side
G_G#_AIt's rewarding but oh, the road is hard....
D A Bm They broke him wide open
Bm_A_G G_G#_ALike a dam and a cork that's holding everything inside
D A Bm You can play the role of rebel
Bm_A_G G_G#_AJust be sure to know your wrong from your right
Bridge
D A I remember it was years ago
F# GYou know I still count the days
D A You and I had quite a ways to go
F# GI never once heard you complain
And you said D A F# G D A F# G~
D A Bm G_A Don't crack, because you might not make it back
D A Bm G_AAnd if you do you will be alone and you can't live like that
D A Bm G_A D A B_A_G_F#_AWell I know when I'm wrong and I sure as hell ain't wrong this time
Chorus
D Bm G AWe're going down, down, down to Mephisto's Cafe
D Bm G ADown, down, down to Mephisto's Café. We're going down !
