Chalkdust Torture chords by Phish

Verse:
    E          A
Come stumble my mirth beaten worker
   E          A
I’m Jezmund the family berzerker
   E             A
I’m bought for the price of a flagon of rice
E              A
The wind buffs the cabin You speak of your life
         E      A
Or more willingly Locust the Lurker

Verse:
 E              A
Confuse what you can of the ending
    E            A
And revise your despise so impending
     E                   A
‘Cause I soak on the wrath That you didn’t quite mask
   E                  A
I’m getting it clearly through alternate paths
   E                A
Or mixed in with the signal you’re sending

Chorus:
 G              A
But who can unlearn all the facts that I’ve learned
   G             E
As I sat in their chairs and my synapses burned
   G             A
And the torture of chalk dust collects on my tongue
   G            A
Thoughts follow my vision and dance in the sun
    G              A
All my vasoconstrictors they come slowly undone
G            A
Can’t this wait ’til I’m old
E      A
Can’t I live while I’m young?

Verse:
     E         A
But no peace for Jezmund tonight
  E            A
I plug the distress tube up tight
  E             A
And watch what I say as it flutters away
  E                   A
And all this emotion is kept harmless at bay
E             A
