Break on through to the other side, break on through to the other side,

Break on through to the other side, yeah.

{* Repeat Intro/Verse and Bridge *}

We chased our pleasures here, dug our treasures there

But can ya still recall the time we cried?

{* Repeat Chorus *}

Break on through to the other side, break on through to the other side.

{* Repeat Intro/Verse during keyboard solo *}

Everybody loves my baby, everybody loves my baby,

She get...She get...She get...She get...high.....

{* Repeat Intro/Verse and Bridge *}

I found an island in your arms, country in your eyes,

Arms that chain, eyes that lie.
