Verse 1:
G#                               E
 I once thought that time was an ocean
G#                                  E
 There'd always be a little more, somehow
G#m                                    A
 And I could be the lady, or I could be the carpenter
                   E
But I don't think that now

G#                                E                        G#
 I can hear a fire with one voice screaming (Miserere mei, Deus!)
                                    E                               G#m
Why couldn't Ziggy come back down again? (Libera me de sanguinibus, Deus!)
                               A
Lost on the shores of planet desperation (Miserere mei, Deus!)
               E   B
Staring at the end

Refrain:
E        C#m    G#              C
Oh-oh-oh-oh, ah-ah, I would go outsidе
           Am                 D
I would go out, but there's a world war
E        C#m    G#          C              Am                 D

Verse 3:
G#                                          E
 Pursued through the streets, I escape to the shoreline
G#                               E
 Where blue, plutonic winds whip the air
G#m                        A                                  E
 Hoping and waiting to cry upon the shoulder of someone who's not there

E                  F#
 When I get to the pearly gates
       C#m                   G#
Will I see you on the inside pointing at me?
          C
Mouthing "There he is, officer
Am                                  G C D
There's the prick I warned you about"
    E                  F#
The best part of me is dying
    C#m                      G#              C
I'm running out of places to bury your body again
          A                    G C D
And every song is a crime scene

I walked into the ocean at Long Beach

It spit out plastic and didn't treat me any different
  A                      G C D
I deserve this heartbreak
E                      F#
Love doesn't do what I want it to

It doesn't change me and it doesn't change you

 He sent me to send you to hell

For all the damage that you've done

 In spite of a thousand white lies

Verse 8:
              Em7                Am            Asus4
Last night I dreamed that I lost all of who I was
       C              G                  Dm
I was in some ancient village searching for the taste of blood
                           Em7              Am          Asus4
And the roads were dry and dusty, there was terror all around
      C                   G            Dm
I was sure I'd left some money on the other side of town
               Em7              Am                 Asus4
I met a hurdy-gurdy man with a monkey collecting change
        C                   G              Dm
And his fingers grasped so tightly, I was sure that they would break
                        Em7          Am         Asus4
He said, "I am not your enemy, I hope we can be friends
       C            G           Dm
It's a tall, narrow gate we all pass through in the end"

Chorus 3:
             F                            G
And when you get back, tell me what's in there
          Dm        C            G
And if it knows how much we love it
         Dm   Em7
When you get back

Chorus 3:
             F                             G
And when you get back, tell me what's in there
          Dm        C            G
And if it knows how much we love it
         Dm
When you get back
