Lucid chords by Polaris

Tuning: EADGBE

Db
All out of exits, all out of enemies
Db
You built this prison and buried the key
Db   Bbm
I’ve given up on giving in
Db          Bbm                       Db          Bbm    Db
Temptation mocks me from a distance, but I won’t let it win
Bbm
This thin façade could never last
Db                 Bbm       Db              Fm
Like a snake that sheds its skin, illusions shatter like glass

Bbm    Gb    Bbm       Gb                  Bbm
The sceptic inside me believes what he knows
Gb         Ab
Cynically silent but with nothing to show
Bbm   Gb   Bbm           Db        Bbm
The devil beside me is whispering doubt in my ear
Ab          Gb               Bbm
I’ll keep pretending not to hear

Bbm       Ab                 Bbm
So here I am for what it’s worth
                Gb              Bbm
I spilled my blood against the earth
        Ab                  Bbm  Gb
Just to see the world in colour

Bbm
Dead; left for dead and left to rot
Db           Bbm
A tainted memory, an empty afterthought
Bbm                           Gb                      Ab
I’d lay my whole life on the line just to see this through
Bbm
If it consumes me, let the script upon my tomb read:
Bbm
I found my love and let it kill me

Bbm
“Beg and plead, your own ambition brought you to your knees
Bbm
Beg and plead, you built this prison, and buried the key”

Bbm         Db                          Gb
A momentary lapse, the colours fade to grey
                    Ab
As if the world we knew was never meant to be
Bbm                     Db
I know I’ll pay for my mistakes
                        Gb                        Ab
Just promise me you’ll take my word and take my everything

Bbm       Ab                  Bbm
So here I am for what it’s worth
              Gb                Bbm
I spilled my blood against the earth
         Ab                Ebm  Bbm Gb
Just to see the world in colour
Bbm        Ab                  Ebm
So give me all you came here for
         Gb               Bbm
Give me hell and give me war
         Ab              Ebm   Gb
I’ll be waiting for an answer
