Verse 1:
     G+G         C majorC
Send us a signal, give us a sign
        C majorC     D MajorD
The needle's on empty, but she swore everything would be fine
      G+G               C majorC
But it's on fire, and there's bees in the walls
    C majorC                  D MajorD        G+G
They're buzzing so loud that I swear I miss every one of my calls

       G+G         C majorC
So do it with smoke, do it with light
     C majorC           D MajorD               G+G
But whatever you do, just make sure that it's strong and it's bright
            G+G
Cause it feels like the end
   C majorC
But I now and then overreact
       C minorCm             D MajorD            G+G
They've been saying that since way back when the moon turned to blood and made rivers all over your back now

Verse 2:
         G+G        E minorEm      C majorC
This whole world conviction and a lifetime of wonder
       G+G         E minorEm       C majorC
The creeping suspicion that it's all soon going under
        G+G         E minorEm       C majorC
Bought all my sandals from that landslide in the small town
         G+G        E minorEm          C majorC
The wax from the candle's on the strap of her costume ballgown
           G+G               C majorC
It comes through the windows just like radiation, it penetrates like a saber
  G+G                   D/F#D/F#
And according to all my calculations, the sickness will descend in even gradations,
E minorEm
defying the preacher's evaluations
C majorC       D MajorD      G+G
Now is always better than later


Verse 3:
      G+G        C majorC
Go get the door, send them away
    C majorC           D MajorD             G+G
This is not a good time and it doesn't look like a good day
             G+G             C majorC
Cause the house has the odds, they're a hundred to one
         C majorC              D MajorD           G+G
That you will decay in your tracks and go blind as you stare at the sun
         G+G             C majorC
Just making it's rounds and increasing the dread
     C majorC             D MajorD            G+G
That each morning you leave slightly more of yourself in the bed

        G+G      C majorC
But the radio's on and it's turning my heart into gold
    C minorCm         D MajorD           G+G
And the guilt I once had is gone, it's replaced by a fear dying before I get old now


Verse 4:
         G+G        E minorEm          C majorC
The scent of the decay will stay with you all of your life
         G+G          E minorEm         C majorC
The way that the blood still, decades later, stains your pen knife
     G+G         E minorEm      C majorC
It's 10:59 according to the clock at the station
      G+G        E minorEm         C majorC
Oh, what a perfect time to begin making accusations
       G+G                    C majorC
It's easy to forget, but it's tough to lose, like the color of your complexion
       G+G                 D/F#D/F#
Blends in so nicely with purples and blues and most of the time it's disguised as a bruise
     E minorEm
It sleeps under the skin as the good life accrues

  C majorC           D MajorD            G+G
If breathing's the error, it's the simplest correction
       C majorC          D MajorD             G+G
Oh, cause if breathing's the error, it's the simplest correction
