A            F#m      D
Ragged robbins for the curtain call
A             F#m      D
Wrapped in ribbons on the trailer door
A            F#m       D
Carved initials in a concrete footstall
A         F#m     D
On the imitation marble floor
A           F#m      D
We're the boxtop admissions and their throwaways,
A        F#m   D
Strewn across tobacco roads
A          F#m       D
With their wormwood shots and their snake oil plots
A         F#m      D
Drunk sheepshank con men and their sycophants

A F#m D
And I
A    F#m       D
I often wonder if I've already died

[GUITAR DROPS OUT; Only bass/drums play for a frame]

A        F#m     D
Out at elbows by the encore
A          F#m   D
But there's a citadel inside
A             F#m      D
Where I'll go and shape my heart like yours,
A         F#m   D
As you shape yours like mine
A             F#m      D
Where we're the spiraling arms of all galaxies
A           F#m      D
And we're the microscopic sand
A               F#m     D
Suffering from delusions of ungrandeur on middling display
A          F#m       D   A F#m D
Beside the Cardiff giant with the alabaster eyes

A     F#m      D   A F#m D
I often wonder if I've already died
A    F#m       D
I often wonder if I've already died,

[BRIDGE]: repeat 4x

A
Or if the 'I'
A
if the 'I'
A      D
is an unintelligible lie

[OUTRO]:

A
Off we flew like swarms of hornets
F#m       D
'Woken up' from winter's rest
A
To colonize with plastic pulp
   F#m        D
Our neighbor's perfect paper nest
A
While all year round potter wasp
   F#m     D
Has buzzed her unhinged song
A
You can hear its creaking in our floorboards
F#m         D
Megalomania's only mania if you're wrong

A, F#m, D x2
