Key: Em

♫ Intro:

Em x4  B7 x2  Em x4  G x2  A x2  Em



♫ Verse 1:
Em                                     B7
There was a wanderer who found his way to God
Em
Or maybe it was Lucifer under some false facade
Em
Broken down and tattered
                    B7
Compound fractures in his sleeves
Em
Shoe soles nailed together
Em
But he never seemed to bleed

♫ Refrain:
Em                 G
With one desperate push
    B7                             Em
His poor diaphragm forced out a plea

♫ Verse 2:
(repeat intro)
A        Em                                 B7
He said: One home burned down, one fell apart
Em
One met a flood, and one was nothing from the start
Em                            G                   B7
Weapons build against me, well they all seem to fail
Em7
But weapons built against my home
Em7               Am
They always will prevail

♫ Pre-Chorus:
Em
So leave me my liver and leave me my skin
Em
Leave me the way all those other homes did
Em
But leave me a soul, only by definition
Em                        CM7
I don't want to feel anything

♫ Chorus:
   Em          D             G       C
My neurons are snapping like cat gut strings
  Em D        GM7 C
A symphony of agony
  Em                     D
I don't wanna hear and I don't wanna sing
  G                       C
I don't wanna breathe incompletely
     Em       D
I am mourning
   G       C
I am morning
             Em
So break me anew

Em  D  Bm  Em
G  B7  Em  G  Asus4

♫ Verse 3:
Asus4      Em
Well, I'll find every sick fuck I can
   G                    B7
And I'll make them a deal
B7      Em
With no conscience, I'll make money and
Em   G
I'll lie and cheat and steal
G        Em
And that money won't bring happiness
Em
But let me ask what does
Em
'Cause I've found a place, and those sick fucks
Em
Well, they turned it to dust

♫ Refrain:
Em                  G
And if I can't have justice
  B                            Em
I might as well join the unjust

♫ Verse 4:
(repeat intro)
Em7
The floorboards smelled like lemonade
G                       Em
Prepared for our arrival
Em
The air was clean and crisp
Em
Just like a tonic for survival
Em
Well, I wrote my name in charcoal
Em     G                  B7
On the bathhouse where we cried
B7         Em7
So now I'm broken fundamentally
Em7             Am7
And nobody gets why

♫ Pre-Chorus:
Em
So give me what drugs you got, give me your meds
Em
Give me a cocktail to sedate my head
Em
Abandon all hope of my moral salvation
Em
They already took that from me

♫ Chorus:
    Em          D       G         C
The sky was an angel of morning's heat
     Em             D        GM7    C
With languid, shiny curls of aquamarine
         Em                       D
And when I close my eyes and when I dare to dream
       G                     C
When I think I might shatter completely
      Em              D
I can feel them in my hands
D     C
But I can't go back again
   Em          D             G       C
My neurons are snapping like cat gut strings
  Em D        GM7 C
A symphony of agony
  Em                     D
I don't wanna hear and I don't wanna sing
  G                       C
I don't wanna breathe incompletely
     Em       D
I am mourning
   G       C
I am morning
             Em
So break me anew

C  D x2  G x2  Em x6  Em7 x4  B x3  Em x6  Em7 x3  A x3

♫ Outro:
Em                                  G                B
Turns out that the god he found was just a little girl
Em
Sitting on a swingset
Gm               A
Just a little girl
Em
She said "Mister, you look tired
Em     G               B
I will let you go, but first
  Em
I think that what you're asking for
   G      Bm              Em
It just might make things worse"
