[Verse 1]
F C
Were that the song I'm singing
F C
Was an ocean wide
F Am
Let the word I'm breathing
G D
Reach us over to the other side
F C
You chart a burning vessel
F C
Out on a pitch black wave
F Am
Chewing the bone and gristle
G D
When it's the flesh of love you crave
[Interlude]
F C F C
[Verse 2]
F C
When a lie starts dancing
F C
Oh boy, it sure can run
F Am
Halfway around the world
G D
Before the truth can get its trousers on
F C
And in a nightclub mirror
F C
We caught the merest glimpse
F Am
Of my pre-human spirit
G D
Frozen like a deer in the headlamps
F C
Till it just don't matter
F C
Till we're far from care
F Am
When illusion shatters
G D
You see the carnage everywhere
F C
Every-where
F C
Every-where
[Interlude]
F Am G D
[Verse 3]
F C
To where they taste like metal
F C
Through the fog of war
F Am
Too many hurts like nettles
G D
Growing up around my door
F C
Then they cut that stairway
F C
Yeah, with my own bare hands
F Am
To that high rock plateau
G D
Make my home inside the winds
F C
Inside the winds
F C
Inside the winds
F C
Up to that high rocking plateau
G
Make my home inside the winds
