Guitar chords with lyrics

Intro:
(F#) B C#m G#m E (x2)

Verse 1:

G#m
Spreading
B                     E          G#m
It’s headed here like lighting
 B             E
Screaming like elevated trains
G#m            B                         E
Does this word sound like the death bird calling
 G#m
Out your name
 B
At midnight
 B
Once again it 
 F#
It tries at 12:15

Chorus:

B
Every dirty trick
C#m       G#m
Every second lost
Every crucifix
 E   B
Every albatross
Every bridge I burn
C#m       G#m
Every path I cross
Every chance I get
 E     B
I find myself lost
 F#
Everywhere I look
 G#m
Everyone’s insane
 E          B
Give me a good book and some Novacain
 C#m   G#m
Everyone I know is now dead and gone
 E
I’m all that’s left
Oblivion


Verse 2:

G#m     B                     E
Leaving this freezing Land of Lincoln
G#m        B                E         G#m
Seeking my place out in the sun
 B                 E
Has this world stopped asking what it’s thinking
G#m                    B
Did it stop thinking of you
 E                      F#                 B
And when Do you suppose it turned its back on me


Chorus:

B
Every dirty trick
C#m       G#m
Every second lost
Every crucifix
 E   B
Every albatross
Every bridge I burn
C#m       G#m
Every path I cross
Every chance I get
 E     B
I find myself lost
 F#
Everywhere I look
 G#m
Everyone’s insane
 E          B
Give me a good book and some Novacain
 C#m   G#m
Everyone I know is now dead and gone
 E
I’m all that’s left
Oblivion
