Tuning: Standard

Here are the chords for the fifth track from the band?s 2015 album, Paper Gods.

Intro: Am-G-F-Em-C-Dm-F-Bm-E
- I tend to play the final E MajorE chord as a standard bar chord, since it doesn?t sound right in a minor or a full-on
major chord along the fretboard - feel free to make suggestions on the intro below though!
- then play just A minorAm before Simon comes in for the verses

Verses: Am-Dm
- play a G+G chord before entering the chorus riff

Chorus/Outro: F-A-Dm-C-G

Middle 8: A minorAm

[Verse 1]
A minorAm
A augmentedA little ray of comfort in the afternoon
  DmDm
To brighten up the room
To lighten up your mood
A minorAm
The whole world is an ink spot on a plastic spoon
     DmDm
You can fight it

Around around the wall of death, around you go

A minorAm
And time flies like a dancing man on crystal glow
