The Actors Opprobrium chords by Of Montreal

Chords with lyrics

D MajorD        G+G   D MajorD   G+G
I guess I should have known to stay away
A augmentedA            D MajorD   G+G
From a snuff film by Jean Genet
D MajorD    G+G   D MajorD       G+G
But the cash was good and the
A augmentedA                C majorC
Director gave me the biggest scene
        E minorEm       A augmentedA       E MajorE
What does it mean when Pentecostal born-again virgins
    A augmentedA    Bb majorBb       A augmentedA
Appear picketing in angry protest?
    D MajorD    A augmentedA
Oh, those sloppy tarts
    D MajorD    A augmentedA
Have sulphurized hearts

D MajorD G+G D MajorD G+G
Sure, a dead man quietly pulling on his tongue
A augmentedA  D MajorD G+G
In a coffin after being hung
D MajorD G+G D MajorD G+G
Does make strange erotic cinema
C majorC            G+G   Bb majorBb
But that was the great master’s vision
A augmentedA            G+G
And the actors agree to portray
        DmDm       A augmentedA
The fiend is best in a death fantasy
Because when one is licking the knife
A augmentedA            A7A7
Ah, well, that is truly the life

DGDG ADG DGDG

C majorC            E minorEm
Oh, what does it mean
A augmentedA E MajorE  Bb majorBb A augmentedA
When the stagehand approaches
Wheeling in a guillotine?
Let’s play nice
D MajorD  A augmentedA
Yes, I want to be a star
D MajorD    A augmentedA
But that’s going too far


Yes, I’m still smarting from the bite
Of coital sessions in gelatinal light
I’m questioning my chosen career
A augmentedA Bb majorBb A augmentedA D MajorD
Don’t think I’ll be attending the premier

D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
