This is my first tab. Didn't see it on here so I figured it out. Listen to

the song if

you want the picking pattern. This also sounds pretty good strumming on an

acoustic.
C Am
This street holds its secrets
C Am
like a cobra holds its kill
C Am
This street minds its business
C Am
like a jailer minds his jail
F G
That house there is haunted
C Am
That door's a portal to hell
F G
This street holds its secrets
C Am
very well

second verse same pattern

That man wears his skin

like a dancer wears her veils

That man stalks his victims

like a cancer stalks a cell

That man's soul has left him his heart's as

deadly as a rusty nail

That man sheds his skin

like a veil
Bridge
Dm G C Am
Lord, you play a hard game, you know we follow every rule
C C/B F G
Then you take the one thing we thought we'd never lose
Dm Am C F
All I ask is if she's with you please keep her warm and safe
F G
And if it's in your power please purge the memory of this place

Third Verse same as others

This life holds its secrets

like a sea shell holds the sea,

Soft and distant calling like a

fading memory

This life has its victories but its

defeats tear so viciously

This life holds its secrets
