C                          Fmaj13/C            Fmaj7/C
I have heard the wall and worried of the gospel
C                         Fmaj13/C   Fmaj7/C
Ferry fast it crossed a void
C                       Fmaj13/C             Fmaj7/C
I have married broken spoke charging smoke wheels
C                      Fmaj13/C   Fmaj7/C
Spit and swallowed opioids
 
G                        Bb
I am the driver at the wheel of the order
G                        F
Marching circles at the gate
   C/G        Bb
My eyes have seen the fury
G                F
So flattered by fate
 
riff 1 x2
 
C                             Fmaj13/C   Fmaj7/C
Tonight I'd rather count the warm fuse and turn away
C                          Fmaj13/C   Fmaj7/C
Subtract the silence of myself
C                        Fmaj13/C             Fmaj7/C
I would rather choose a middle mind of mystery
C                        Fmaj13/C   Fmaj7/C
Reverse a riddle for my health
 
G                      Bb
I wonder why strange rhymes overpower me
G                         F
Toss the chimneys in the sea
     C/G        Bb
I believe I've seen the finger
G               F
To find extremity

C                          Fmaj13/C       Fmaj7/C
Please come closer to the feather smooth lens fry
C                  Fmaj13/C   Fmaj7/C
Sadness is my luxury
C              Fmaj13/C             Fmaj7/C
Will you wear torn the cold come before I die
C                      Fmaj13/C   Fmaj7/C
More aware of it than me
 
G                              Bb
Without the glowing stone the kids are unabashed
G               F
Loneliness postponed
   C/G     Bb
My eyes deceiving glory
       G       F
I was born to die alone
