Beck: Curses

Verse 1:
D             C                  Em
Curses I send on these countless men
D                              C               A
Curses on their trespasses and will they never end?
D               C              G              D
Curses on their blades, on the spare and open lanes
D                            C      Em
Once I've been searching for recipe acclaim (?)

Verse 2:
D                        C           Em
Curses on their children running all around
D                                C              A
Making such a business while I'm resting in the ground
D                  C         G                    D
I might rise up to meet them when they leave this life
D                           C                    Em
I might rise up to eat them when they leave this life

Verse 3:
D                             C           Em
Curses on this valley and the lands on up ahead
D                            C                  A
I was on my way to meet them when they found me dead
D                        C           G                 D
And I clapped my brittle hands and I made them join my game
D                              C             Em
Now I hope they all decease in merriment and shame

Verse 4:
D                       C                Em
Curse every word that's planted on their lips
D                                  C            A
Curse the sleek machines and their iron-colored ships
D           C         G                   D
Curse every wave that pounds their wicked shore
D                    C                 Em
Curse every salesman knocking on their door

Verse 5:
D                           C          Em
And I am not a creature and I am not a dog
D                       C                  Em
I have no claim to be there in the evening fog
D              C            G           D
And I am not a bone staring through the air
D                             C                Em
I have no say in anything, my tongue is barely there

Verse 6:
D                   C            Em
Curses on curses, I see no other way
D                            C                A
Some of them are weeping and some of them are gay
D                 C              G             D
Some of them have wounds so deep, they feel no pain
D                           C               Em
Curses on their fingers and curses on their brain
