Plundering your diaries, I`ll steal your thoughts innocence
                                          02:40
                                          Heavy guitar comes in
                                          E        C       E       F
Ravaging your letters, unearth your plots innocence
           E                       C
To don the robes of Torquemada, resurrect the inquisition   03:00
        E                              F                E   Small solo
In that tortured subtle manner inflict questions within questions

E                                            C
Looking in shades of green through shades of blue
  E                        F
I trust you trust in me to mistrust you
            E                    C
Through the Silk Cut haze to the smeared mascara
  E                F
A 40 watt sun on a courtroom drama

F       D                  E             A
And accusations moths that circle on the light

 In char their wings and spiral senseless suicidal flight
F                D              E                   A             F
 You packed your world within a suitcase, hot tears melt this icy palace
   D               E                A        F
Dissolve a crystal swallowed by the night
D                    E                       A      F
Looking in shades of green through shades of blue
