The Bad Arts chords by Destroyer

Verse:

   E
Absolve, absolve, absolve

             B                      G#m
We spent the better part of the day

 B               G#m    E       D#m      C#m
Waiting for the wave to hit our side of town

It didn't

   E
Absolve, absolve, absolve

             B                           G#m
I washed my hands of the stuff of legends

     B                        G#m
And what news of the horizon?

             B          G#m       E
I hear it's all just a horizontal myth

    D#m      C#m                       C#
So stop your cruising, start your criticizing, oh

    C#       D#m      E
Indulge yourself for once, feel medium between them

     B         G#m
God damn, your eyes

            B     G#m    C#     D#m             E
They just had to be twin prizes waiting for the sun

         B         G#m
And God damn, your eyes

            B     G#m     C#    D#m             E
They just had to be twin prizes waiting for the sun

            B     G#m     C#    D#m             E
They just had to be twin prizes waiting for the sun
            B     G#m     C#    D#m             E

Interlude:
B - E

Verse:

         B
See them sporting those eagle iron-ons

     E
You made me swear never to wear

     G#m
Why did you spend the '90s cowering?

     E
Why did you spend the '90s cowering?

             B
And they're singing those inspirationals

     E
You penned back in '72

        G#m
And the hotels of choice are now toasting your voice

        E                                                  B
As the spas ring out, "What's another word for sacrament?"

Interlude:
E - G#m - E


Verse:

    B
The world woke up one day to proclaim

       E
"Thou shalt not take part in, or make, bad art"

         B
In these tough, tough times

Friends like mine would rather dash than dine

       E
On the bones of what's thrown to them

       F#
When a wave of her wand has us back at the pond

       E
Taking notes for our crooked underground

B - E (Repeat as many times as needed)

Verse:

    B
The world woke up one day to proclaim

                 E
"Thou shalt not make or take part in the bad arts"

              B
You see, the singer sold us out

                                            E
The guitarist lost his clout on Life-Of-The-Mind Day

     B
When signs become impure again

     E
The crowd doesn't know where or when

          B
To let it all hang out

Bloodlet yourself, street style
