Intro: D(3)        G+G         D(3)


D(3)        G+G         D(3)
Hold your tongue the unwilling and the safe
          G+G    D(3)
Make your mark in your own tiny way
          G+G            B minorBm
Your own miniature firework display for one

D(3)        G+G         D(3)
Fear of facing the shadow on the shore
        G+G        D(3)
Tied in knots and hung out on the backdoor
                 G+G     D(3)    B minorBm
The 'boy-done-good' thoughts of valour and the all for one

     A augmentedA           D MajorD
It's the beetle in the box that shakes in your hands
     B minorBm            G+G     D MajorD
And it's formed out of feelings I don't understand
    E minorEm             B minorBm
They're mapped in the gaps and the spaces between
  G+G          A augmentedA      D(3)    G+G   D(3)
The worry of bearing the ghost in the machine

D(3)           G+G         D(3)
I eat your words and you mark my mistakes
           G+G    D(3)
We set the dictionary up to fail
            G+G   D(3)       B minorBm  G+G
The work of poets is a vapour we exhale it's gone

D(3)          G+G      D(3)
Fleeting fondness is a flicker in your frown
         G+G        D(3)
Spilling out in adjectives and nouns
              G+G                B minorBm
A augmentedA mess of letters once it's chewed and swallowed down all gone

     A augmentedA           D MajorD
It's the beetle in the box that shakes in your hands
     B minorBm            G+G     D MajorD
And it's formed out of feelings I don't understand
    E minorEm             B minorBm
They're mapped in the gaps and the spaces between
  G+G          A augmentedA      D(3)    G+G   D(3)
The worry of bearing the ghost in the machine

How do you feel pain?
C majorC

How do you hear sound?
A minorAm
(Tapping on the walls)
FF
I wish I could feel it all
    G+G           FF (P.M)
(I wish I could feel it all)

     G+G           C majorC
It's the beetle in the box that shakes in your hands
     A minorAm            FF   C majorC
And it's formed out of feelings I don't understand
    DmDm             A minorAm
They're mapped in the gaps and the spaces between
  A minorAm          G+G
The worry of bearing the ghost
  FF          G+G
The worry of bearing the ghost
    C majorC    F*   C majorC   (P.M)
In the machine
