TRANSCRIBED BY: Benjamin the Great & MuggyWuggy 

C#m                  B 
   I can have a dark side 
             A 
If you want me to 
B                     C#m 
I can have a dark side 

C#m                      B                    
I can develop my brooding potential 
      A                        B 
If pain’s what you want in a man 

                 C#m 
Pain I can do 
   B                    C#m 
I can have a dark side too 

E                              D 
I called my girlfriend up on the phone 
             A                          E 
I said, “Hey girlfriend what’s going wrong?” 
E                              D 
She said, “I’m breaking it off with you 
              A              E 
“I feel as if the magic has gone” 
              F#m                   A 
I said, “Hey baby what’re you talking about? 
      E                             B 
“I thought that everything was just fine” 
              F#m               A 
She said, “That’s exactly my point 
              E                                  B 
“I just get so annoyed how you’re so happy all the time 
F#m                  G#m 
“I need somebody deeper than you 
 A                                 B 
“Someone with a little third-dimension” 

I said, 
C#m                       B 
   I can have a dark side 
             A 
If you want me to 
   B                     C#m 
I can have a dark side 

C#m                      B                    
I can develop my brooding potential 
      A                                     B 
If pain’s what you want in a man 

                 C#m 
Pain I can do 

   B                               
I can have a dark side  
I can have a dark side 
I can have a dark side 

I wrote a letter to Mr Sony 
I said, “Hey Sony what’s going down? 
“I’ve got a record and I reckon it’s wicked 
“And I think you should s-spread it around” 
He said, “Hey Tim, I quite like your work 
“It’s clever and quirky 
“But I promise you this 
“You could be clever as Voltaire 
“But it won’t get you nowhere 
“If you wanna sell discs 
“Clever never made no one rich 
“It doesn’t appeal to the teenage market 
“The teenage market!” 

I said, 
I can have a dark side 
If you want me to 
I can have a dark side 
I can reveal my tortured internals 
If pain’s what you want in an act 
Pain I can do 
I can have a dark side too 
I can have a dark side 

C#m               B                    A 
Daddy never came to my ball games 
Where are you daddy? 
Daddy never came to my ball games 
He never loved me 

I, 
I can have a dark side 
If you want me to
