LYRICS & STRUCTURE
What would I do, Lonely as you
Pleasure or pain, I can't choose
(repeat)
Wake up you're dreaming, I can't stand your screaming
Drowing out these prayers, just some words without meaning
Spare all the preaching, my secret's worth keeping
No one understands like I do
Keep out of reach, I'm your leading deletion
Hide behind these masks, though they still see right through them
Every now and then, Down and out my friend
Down and out again, Down and out again
Down and out again, But I'm down with you
One more time for the last time (Oooo)
One more time for release (Oooo)
One more time for the last time (Oooo)
Everyone wants to believe (Oooo)
Blame it on youth, all these years I've been losing
Blame it on the past, it's the last place I knew you
Blame all the children, they're aging and ruined
Blame it on the black and the blue
Every now and then, Down and out my friend
Down and out again, Down and out again
Down and out again, But I'm down with you
CHORUS
Every now and then, Down and out my friend
Down and out again, Down and out again
Down and out again, But I'm down with you
CHORUS (repeat three times)

Sorry this tab is so long and hard to read, but it's my first try.
This song rocks, and I hope I've helped some of you rock as well.
