Riff#1
D A Bm ( Bm_A_G )
They will not remember this song
G A
No matter what we do we'll be wrong
D A Bm
They will not remember this song
G A
No matter what we do we'll be wrong
Verse (Riff#2)
D A Bm
I can't seem to see the seal we're breaking, I can't seem to see the seal we broke
G A
I refuse to recognize your views,
D A Bm
Someone shouted "Everything's for nothing", somebody shouted, "All is lost"
G A
But I can't buy that nonsense too
D A Bm
Way back when the prophecies began, do you think they really had a master plan
G A
Or were they merely writing fables, stories?
D A Bm
I don't know but it has occurred to me, the punishment that they threaten constantly
G A (A)
It's only real if they could just convince me
D Bm G A
We're going down, down, down to Mephisto's Cafe
D Bm G A
Down, down, down to Mephisto's Café. We're going down !
D Bm G A
And the gears will spin and the sinners sin, but at least we'll give them hell
D Bm G A
And the righteous few will spit on you, so bid them all farewell
D Bm G A
We're going down, down, down to Mephisto's Cafe
D Bm (B_A_G_F#_A~)
We're going down (Right?) (Right!)
Verse (Riff#2)
D A Bm
So fuck the flocks of sheep that keep amassing masses
G A
Asses being led so far astray
D A Bm
And I won't claim to believe the things I read, black books or agenda magazine
G A
I'd rather see in shades of gray

G Bm F# D
If I were you, I would take this as a sign
G Bm F# D
Believe it's true, we were never meant to fly
--->(Acapella)or same the end of the intro part (see above)<---
And I knew you when you were you
Before they twisted all your views
Before you came unglued
Chorus
D Bm G A
We're going down, down, down to Mephisto's Cafe
D Bm G A
Down, down, down to Mephisto's Café. We're going down !
D Bm G A
And the gears will spin and the sinners sin, but at least we'll give them hell
D Bm G A
And the righteous few will spit on you, so bid them all farewell

(Riff#1) until bridge
D A Bm Bm_A_G
Now everybody's telling taller tales
G_G#_A
And I don't know who to believe
D A Bm Bm_A_G
Ok, if your father really loves you more
G_G#_A
What about the other families?
D A Bm Bm_A_G G_G#_A
Finally, I met a man with kindness in his eyes and fire in his heart
D A Bm Bm_A_G
He said you'll never have to choose a side
G_G#_A
It's rewarding but oh, the road is hard....
D A Bm
They broke him wide open
Bm_A_G G_G#_A
Like a dam and a cork that's holding everything inside
D A Bm
You can play the role of rebel
Bm_A_G G_G#_A
Just be sure to know your wrong from your right
Bridge
D A
I remember it was years ago
F# G
You know I still count the days
D A
You and I had quite a ways to go
F# G
I never once heard you complain
And you said
D A F# G
D A F# G~
D A Bm G_A
Don't crack, because you might not make it back
D A Bm G_A
And if you do you will be alone and you can't live like that
D A Bm G_A D A B_A_G_F#_A
Well I know when I'm wrong and I sure as hell ain't wrong this time
Chorus
D Bm G A
We're going down, down, down to Mephisto's Cafe
D Bm G A
Down, down, down to Mephisto's Café. We're going down !

D Bm G A
We're going down, down, down to Mephisto's Cafe
D Bm B_A_G_F#_A~ D
We're going down (Right?) (Right!)
