[Intro]
B5/E D5/A B5/E x4
B5/E D5/A B5/E C5 D5 x2
[Verse 1]
[Em] I've looked in[D]to the heart of [Em]darkness[C] [D]
[Em] Where the [D]blood-red journey [Em]ends[C] [Am]
[Em] When you've [D]faced the heart of [Em]darkness[C] [D]
[Em] Even your [D]soul begins to [Em]bend[C] [Am]
[Verse 2]
[Em] For a [D]week I have been [Em]waiting[C] [D]
[Em] Still I am [D]only in Sai[Em]gon[C] [Am]
[Em] The walls move [D]in a little [Em]closer[C] [D]
[Em] I feel the [C]jungle call me [D]on[C] [D]
(distorted power chords)
[Verse 3]
[Em] Every [D]minute I get [Em]weaker[C] [D]
[Em] While in the [D]jungle they grow [Em]strong[C] [Am]
[Em] What I [D]wanted was a [Em]mission[C] [D]
[Em] And for my [D]sins they gave me [Em]one[C] [Am]
[Verse 4]
[Em] They brought it [D]up just like room [Em]service[C] [D]
[Em]'Cause every[D]one gets what they [Em]want[C] [Am]
[Em] And when that [D]mission was all [Em]over[C] [D]
[Em] I'd never [C]want another [D]one[C] [D]
[Riff]
Em G Am C D x3
[Bridge 1]
[Em] I know, captain, that you've [Em]done this work before
[G] [D] We've got a problem, you can [Bm]help us all I'm [C]su[D]re
[Em] The colonel's gone rogue, and his [Em]methods are unsound
[G] [D] You'll take a PBR up [C]river track him [D]down...
[Riff]
[Em] [G] [C] [D]
[Bridge 2]
[Em] There's a conflict in [Em]every human heart
[G] [D] And the temptation is to [Bm]take it all to [C]fa[D]r
[Em] In this war [Em]things get so confused
[G] [D] But there are some things which [Bm]cannot be ex[C]cu[D]sed
[Bridge 3]
[Em] He's acting like a God - an [Em]insane lunatic
[G] [D] Your mission - exterminate with [Bm]extreme preju[C]di[D]ce
[Em] The route is dangerous and your [Em]progress may be slow
[G] [D] Here is the file and it's [C]all you [D]need to know...
[Riff]

[Pre-cborus]
[Em]Here I am the [G]knife in my hand
And now [Am]I understand why the [C]genius must [D]die
[Cborus 1]
[Em] Now I [D]stand alone in the [Em]darkness[C] [D]
[Em] With his [D]blood upon my [Em]hands[C] [Am]
[Em] Where sat the [D]warrior the [Em]poet[C] [D]
[Em] Now lie the [C]fragments of a [D]man[C] [D]
(clean picking)
[Cborus 2]
[Em] I've looked in[D]to the heart of [Em]darkness[C] [D]
[Em] Where the [D]blood-red journey [Em]ends[C] [Am]
[Em] When you've [D]faced the heart of [Em]darkne[C]ss[D]
[Em] Even your [C]soul begins to [D]bend[C] [D]
[Outro]
[Em] I've looked in[D]to the heart of [Em]darkness...
