[Intro]
 
C  C/B  Am  G
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
C            C/B          Am           G
Hand me your hand, let me look in your eyes
      C                    C/B    Am          G
As my last chance to feel human begins to vaporize
C              C/B           Am                 G
Maybe it’s the heat in here, maybe it’s the pressure
F
You ought to head for the exits, the sooner the better
 
 
[Chorus]
 
          C         C/B   Am                 G
I am this great, unstable mass of blood and foam
    C              C/B             Am                G
And no one in her right mind would make my home her home
              F
My heart’s an autoclave
              C
My heart’s an autoclave
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
        C          C/B         Am             G
When I try to open up to you I get completely lost
C                 C/B          Am                  G
Houses swallowed by the earth, windows thick with frost
C                 C/B                  Am                 G
And I reach deep down within, but the pathways twist and turn
            F
And there’s no light anywhere, and nothing left to burn
 
 
[Chorus]
 
          C         C/B   Am                 G
I am this great, unstable mass of blood and foam
    C          C/B                       Am                 G
And no emotion that's worth having would call my heart its home
              F
My heart’s an autoclave
              C
My heart’s an autoclave
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
    C               C/B               Am             G
I dreamt that I was perched atop a throne of human skulls
       C              C/B            Am                   G
On a cliff above the ocean, howling wind and shrieking seagulls
         C              C/B         Am              G
And the dream went on forever, one single static frame
    F
Sometimes you want to go where everybody knows your name
 
 
[Chorus]
 
          C         C/B   Am                 G
I am this great, unstable mass of blood and foam
    C              C/B             Am                G
And no one in her right mind would make my home her home
              F
My heart’s an autoclave
              C
My heart’s an autoclave
 
C  C/B  Am  G F
