Verse
The verse has the same chords that the part above, but they're
played with distortion. Hear very carefully the song so you can catch
the rhythm.
Here are the lyrics:
Have you run your fingers down the wall
And have you felt your neck skin crawl
When you're searching for the light
Sometimes when you're scared to take a look
At the corner of the room
You've sensed that something's watching you

Then, comes the Chorus again, the last verse, and the outro,
that is similar to the Intro, so you can get it easy.
