Verse 1:
Am                        Dsus2
If the strain proves too much
                 Am
Give up right away
                         Dsus2
If the light hurts your eyes

Stay in your room all day

Chorus 1:
                           C
When the room fills with smoke
                    G
Lie down on the floor
           Dsus2
In the declining years
                 Am
Of the long war


Verse 2:
                           Dsus2
Well the blood's in the water
                           Am
And the shark's gonna come
                    Dsus2
And we swim in the dark
                        Am
Until our bodies are numb


Chorus 2:
                C
Blind desert rats in the moonlight
                   G
Too far from the shore
           Dsus2
In the declining years
       Am
Of the long war


Instrumental:
Am
Em G D5 D5 x3
Em G (Fade in Am)


Verse 3:
                   Dsus2
Empty room with a lightbulb
                            Am
Where the phone starts to ring
                  Dsus2
Everybody gets nervous
                   Am
Nobody says anything


Bridge:
                           C
The next day someone's initials
                  G
Show up on the door
                       Dsus2
I think I'm gonna crack
                            Am
Cant live like this anymore


Chorus 3:
                        C
Ugly things in the darkness
                    G
Worse things in store
                    Dsus2
In the declining years
              Am
Of the long war


Instrumental Outro:
Em G D5 D5 x3
Em G D5
