[Intro]
GBmF#D
If I were you, I would take this as a sign
GBmF#D
Believe it's true, we were never meant to fly
GBmF#D
And I owe you, I know you more than anyone alive
GBmA
And I will not let it go

DABm ( Bm_A_G )
They will not remember this song
GA
No matter what we do we'll be wrong
DABm
They will not remember this song
GA
No matter what we do we'll be wrong
[Verse]
(Riff#2)
DABm
I can't seem to see the seal we're breaking, I can't seem to see the seal we broke
GA
I refuse to recognize your views,
DABm
Someone shouted "Everything's for nothing", somebody shouted, "All is lost"
GA
But I can't buy that nonsense too
DABm
Way back when the prophecies began, do you think they really had a master plan
GA
Or were they merely writing fables, stories?
DABm
I don't know but it has occurred to me, the punishment that they threaten constantly
GA (A)
It's only real if they could just convince me
DBmGA
We're going down, down, down to Mephisto's Cafe
DBmGA
Down, down, down to Mephisto's Café. We're going down !
DBmGA
And the gears will spin and the sinners sin, but at least we'll give them hell
DBmGA
And the righteous few will spit on you, so bid them all farewell
DBmGA
We'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)
DABm
So fuck the flocks of sheep that keep amassing masses
GA
Asses being led so far astray
DABm
And I won't claim to believe the things I read, black books or agenda magazine
GA
I'd rather see in shades of gray
Bridge (Same as intro)
GBmF#D
If I were you, I would take this as a sign
GBmF#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]
DBmGA
We're going down, down, down to Mephisto's Cafe
DBmGA
Down, down, down to Mephisto's Café. We're going down !
DBmGA
And the gears will spin and the sinners sin, but at least we'll give them hell
DBmGA
And the righteous few will spit on you, so bid them all farewell
DBmGA
We're going down, down, down to Mephisto's Cafe
D Bm B_A_G_F#_A~
We're going down (Right?) (Right!)

(Riff#1) until bridge
DABmBm_A_G
Now everybody's telling taller tales
G_G#_A
And I don't know who to believe
DABmBm_A_G
Ok, if your father really loves you more
G_G#_A
What 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
DABmBm_A_G
He said you'll never have to choose a side
G_G#_A
It's rewarding but oh, the road is hard....
DABm
They broke him wide open
Bm_A_G G_G#_A
Like a dam and a cork that's holding everything inside
DABm
You can play the role of rebel
Bm_A_G G_G#_A
Just be sure to know your wrong from your right
[Bridge]
DA
I remember it was years ago
F#G
You know I still count the days
DA
You and I had quite a ways to go
F#G
I never once heard you complain
And you said
DAF#GDAF#G~
D A Bm G_A
Don't crack, because you might not make it back
D A Bm G_A
And 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#_A
Well I know when I'm wrong and I sure as hell ain't wrong this time
[Chorus]
DBmGA
We're going down, down, down to Mephisto's Cafe
DBmGA
Down, down, down to Mephisto's Café. We're going down !
DBmGA
And the gears will spin and the sinners sin, but at least we'll give them hell
DBmGA
And the righteous few will spit on you, so bid them all farewell
DBmGA
We're going down, down, down to Mephisto's Cafe
D Bm B_A_G_F#_A~ D
We're going down (Right?) (Right!)
