3:39
The street is cold
The dawn is gray
My heart says no but
My head says stay
My work is finished
Or so I've been told
Can't part the three of us
Once we got a hold
I forgot the name
I took a shot on the chin
I'm rearranging my game
Tell by the shape I'm in
In line of fire
You know what to say
They gave us no choices
Just one shade of gray
My legs keep movin'
Don't seem to stray
But I know each step we take
They're one step away
I found the secret
The key to the vault
We walked in darkness
Kept hitting the walls
I took the time
To feel for the door
I found the secret
The key to it all
I got the nouveau riche
And dragged it home to bed
I traded you for me
I took it all and said
I find my own fun
Sometimes for free
I got to pay it
To come lookin' for me
Walkin' on Gucci, wearin' Yves St. Laurent
Barely stay on
Cause I'm so God damn gaunt
I found the secret
The key to the vault
We walked in darkness
Kept hitting the walls
I took the time
To feel for the door
I found the secret
The key to it all
Combinazione
La strada è fredda, l'alba grigia, il cuore dice no
La testa dice resta
Il mio lavoro è finito, o così mi hanno detto
Non puoi dividere noi tre una volta che ci siamo uniti
Ho dimenticato il mio nome, mi hanno colpito e ho incassato
Riorganizzo il mio gioco, lo capisci dalla forma in cui mi trovi
Sono in prima linea, sappiamo cosa dire
Non ci hanno dato scelta, solo un'ombra di grigio
Le mie gambe continuano a muoversi, non sembrano cambiare direzione
Ma so che ogni passo è un passo che ci porta lontano
Ho scoperto un segreto, la chiave della cripta
Abbiamo camminato nell'oscurità, tastando i muri
Ho preso tempo per cercare la porta, ho scoperto un segreto
La chiave di tutte le porte
Conosco il modo per diventare ricco e me lo tengo stretto
Ho barattato te in cambio di me stesso, ho preso tutto e ho detto
Prima o poi troverò il modo per divertirmi gratis
Ma devo pagare perchè mi venga a cercare
Con le tue scarpe di Gucci, i tuoi vestiti di Sain-Laurent
Resta pure li e aspetta, perchè sono tremendamente malmesso
Ho scoperto un segreto, la chiave della cripta
Abbiamo camminato nell'oscurità, tastando i muri
Ho preso tempo per cercare la porta, ho scoperto un segreto
La chiave di tutte le porte

I tried as best I could on this one. I may go back and revise it later. You're welcome to do the same.
The main riff is kind of in two parts. Variations of the second part are used for the verse.
'part 1'-
E--------------------------------------|
B--------------------------------------|
G--------------------------------------|
D------------------2--(2)--5--4--2-----|
A------------------2--(2)--5--4--2-----|
E--0-2h3--p0---h7--0--(0)--3--2--0-----|
'part 2'-
E------------------------------------|
B----------------2--(2)--------2-----|
G----------------2--(2)--5--4--2-----|
D----------------2--(2)--5--4--2-----|
A--0-2-3p0---h7--0--(0)--3--2--------|
E------------------------------------|
Some of the variations that I hear are variations in pull-offs(these occur throughout,I think) and the extra chords that I have indicated with parentheses.
The next big riff goes like this:
I forgot my name...
E--------------------------------------------------|
B--------------------------------------------------|
G--------------------------------9--7--7\6---------|
D----------------------2------2--9--7--7\6---------|
A--\7--5---------------2------2--7--5--5\4---------|
E----------0--7--5--3--0------0--------------------|
The chords at the end of that riff are somewhat muddied with distortion so it's hard to tell exactly what they are. What I have tabbed sounds similar, though, if not identical.
The same goes for this riff. Correct it if you can:
A G F#m
I found the secret...
E--------------------------------3---------------2-|
B---------------2----------------3---------------2-|
G---------------2----------------0---------------2-|
D---------------2----------------0---------------4-|
A--0-2-3p0--h6------0-2-3p0--h6--2---0-2-3p0--h6-4-|
E--------------------------------3---------------2-|
Fm
E---------------1--|
B---------------1--|
G---------------1--|
D---------------3--|
A--0-2-3p0--h6--3--|
E---------------1--|
I don't know the solo(but would love to, of course). If you know it, send it to me and I'll put it up.
outro-
E--------------------------------------------------|
B----------7--7----------5--5---------3--3---------|
G----------7--7----------5--5---------3--3---------|

3x then:

D---6\7--7-7-7-7-7-|--6\7--7--9--9-9-9--------------|
