Pleasure Of The Pain chords by Fearless Vampire Killers

Chords with lyrics

chorus:
A minorAm          FF
The pleasure of the pain
E MajorE        A minorAm
Consumes all I feel
  D/Bm
It steals
      G+G
But what it leaves
    E MajorE    A minorAm
Is a monster of me

B minorBm

verse:
C majorC
In the back alley cabaret
FF
Where the girls and the boys are claimed
   A augmentedA         G+G
We'll find solace in the sticky floors
            F#F#
And the body heat of those aflame

    C majorC
Is it wrong of me to feel so much
     A augmentedA
In this climate of restraint
      FF          B minorBm
With every bottle drained a disapproving glance
    G+G       A minorAm
And god, I feel so ashamed

chorus:
A augmentedA            FF
But the pleasure of the pain
  E MajorE      A minorAm
Consumes all I feel
  D MajorD
It steals
      G+G
But what it leaves
    F minorFm    A minorAm
Is a monster of me

B minorBm

verse:
C majorC

So I pack my regrets in chains
A augmentedA              B minorBm
Head to where the ghosts congregate
A minorAm           G+G
Under black and tragic empty skies
   D MajorD
They preach their madness could the dead tell lies?

     C majorC
Cos I'm desperate to believe
   A augmentedA          DmDm
I'll take anything they give
                 B minorBm
I'm like a rabid dog, with suffocating rage
                    A minorAm
But these cadavers say that they can stave

chorus:
A augmentedA            FF
But the pleasure of the pain
  E MajorE      A minorAm
Consumes all I feel
  D MajorD
It steals
      G+G
But what it leaves
   F minorFm    A minorAm
Is a monster of me

bridge:
C majorC           E MajorE
  And from her lips she sung
         A minorAm
A augmentedA melody to die for
FF
G+G           E MajorE
  And from my chest she drew
           C majorC
A augmentedA beating heart and stabbed it
              D MajorD
With the tweezers from her dresser

C majorC         D MajorD
 The devotion you give
  A minorAm     DmDm
Down on aching knees
       C majorC      G+G
Using your throat as a sieve
      A augmentedA          A minorAm
While the ghosts of your rejections
       G+G       D MajorD
Haunt the places you've forgotten

      G+G
And they'll say it was worth it
   BB
Just for

chorus:
E MajorE           FF
The pleasure of the pain
  E MajorE       A minorAm
Consumes all I feel
  C majorC
It steals
      G+G
But what it leaves
   C majorC     A minorAm
Is a monster of me
          FF
No matter where I run
    A augmentedA        A minorAm
I can smell you on my skin
   D MajorD
Distinct
       D MajorD
But when I need your taste
  G+G       A augmentedA     C majorC
My body doesn't slake the thirst.
