Chords with lyrics

INTRO: F# minorF#m F#m C#9C#9 F# minorF#m (x2)

[[[VERSE 1]]]
F# minorF#m          C#9C#9     F# minorF#m
I watch the work of my kin bold and boyful
F# minorF#m           C#9C#9    F# minorF#m
Toying somewhere between love and abuse
E MajorE            A augmentedA
Calling to join them the wretched and joyful
F# minorF#m            C#9C#9   F# minorF#m
Shaking the wings of their terrible youths

[[[VERSE 2]]]
F# minorF#m            C#9C#9   F# minorF#m
Freshly dissolved in some frozen devotion
F# minorF#m        C#9C#9     F# minorF#m
No more alone or myself could I be
E MajorE             A augmentedA
Looks like a strain to the arms it were open
F# minorF#m          C#9C#9       F# minorF#m
No shortage of sordid, no protest from me

[[[CHORUS]]]
    F# minorF#m            A augmentedA
With her sweetened breath, and her tongue so mean
     E MajorE              F# minorF#m
She's the angel of small death and the codeine scene
    F# minorF#m          A augmentedA
With her straw-blonde hair, her arms hard and lean
     E MajorE              F# minorF#m
She's the angel of small death and the codeine scene

[[[VERSE 3]]]
F# minorF#m          C#9C#9      F# minorF#m
Feeling more human and hooked on her flesh, I
F# minorF#m            C#9C#9     F# minorF#m
Lay my heart down with the rest at her feet
E MajorE             A augmentedA
Fresh from the fields, all feeder and fur tires
F# minorF#m          C#9C#9     F# minorF#m
Bloody and raw, but I swear it is sweet

>>>CHORUS

[[[VERSE 4]]]
F# minorF#m              C#9C#9    F# minorF#m
And lease this confusion, I'll wander the concrete
F# minorF#m         C#9C#9    F# minorF#m
Wonder if better now having survived
E MajorE            A augmentedA
Jarring of judgement and reasons defeat
     F# minorF#m           C#9C#9    F# minorF#m
The sweet heat of her breath in my mouth I'm alive

>>>CHORUS (x2)
