Intro: E A Am (2x)


EGlass-work shards decorate this house
      A                  AmWe're tossing lust darts out windows
    EThe splash and jangle of the secret signs
  A                        AmDefined, you claimed, some golden ages
 E       A Amupon us

    EYou always love short story form
    A                    AmThe signs behind it, the hidden bars
    EYou live for flaming, the attractions new
  A                       AmA lever's pulled from the secret room


C                     FClose that stare into morning sun
         D                 GWhen the dots form into connection
       C                   FIf I'm honest, you come to mind
          GBut baby, I'm not
       C                   FIf I'm honest, you come to mind
          GBut baby, I'm not


Instrumental: E A Am


    EThe ink draft's polished into working script
   A                      AmWe stare in wonder at the steps we skipped
ETripping wires we have so carefully crossed
    A                      AmThe science behind it at a perfect loss


E                      AYou're my lord, you're my shepherd
F#m              DCareful, kid, no one gets hurt
B  You made me

E                      AYou're my lord, you're my shepherd
F#m              DCareful, kid, no one gets hurt
B  You made me


Instrumental: E A Am


EUsed up all of the French we took
    A                       AmThe science behind it was a dirty look
ESongez pas de rock-n-roll
A                    AmSongez pas de rock-n-roll pour moi


E                      AYou're my lord, you're my shepherd
F#m              DCareful, kid, no one gets hurt
