[Tucker:]
  F#m                      B
Today I am stitched, I am sewn
         F#m                     B
Patch me up, I've got want in my bones
          F#m                         B
Like some doll you thought you could throw away
           F#m       F#m   B
I found my legs

[Brownstein:]
F#m            B              F# B
Ready to climb out from under concrete
F#m  B           F#m         B
Only I get to be sickened by me
F#m
My body a smudge
B                  F# B
Can't make out the details
F#m           B        C#m       F#m
Want to start over and come into being

[Chorus - Tucker & Brownstein:]
  F#m      B         F#m      B
Exhume our idols and bury our friends
     F#m       B            F#m        B
We're wild and weary but we won't give in
      F#m       B
We're sick with worry
      F#m        B
These nerve-less days
   F#m     B            F#m         B
We live on dread in our own guilded age

[Tucker:]
    F#m                        B
This dark world is precious to me
   F#m                         B
My scars make me breathe in so deep
   F#m                  B
My body has no need for sleep
          F#      F#m B
This time around

[Brownstein:]
F#m      B    F#m          B
Ready to find fragments of stillness
F#m  B           F#m         B
Only I get to be punished by me
     F#m        B
Your voice is a crumb,
F#m                  B
It leads me from the wildness
F#m         B        F#m
Wanna start over, forget everything

[Chorus - Tucker & Brownstein:]
  F#m      B         F#m      B
Exhume our idols and bury our friends
     F#m       B            F#m        B
We're wild and weary but we won't give in
      F#m       B
We're sick with worry
      F#m        B
These nerve-less days
   F#m     B        F#m             B
We live on dread in our own guilded age

[Brownstein:]
          F#m
Make me a headline
  G#m  C#m      F#m
I wanna be that bold
B         F#m
Make me a spotlight
   G#m   C#m      F#m      B
So I can see that gold

          F#m
Make me a headline
  G#m  C#m      F#m
I wanna be that bold
B         F#m
Make me a spotlight
   B     C#m     F#m       B
So I can see the gold

[Chorus - Tucker & Brownstein:]
  F#m      B         F#m      B
Exhume our idols and bury our friends
     F#m       B            F#m        B
We're wild and weary but we won't give in
      F#m       B
We're sick with worry
      F#m        B
These nerve-less days
   F#m     Bm           F#m         B
We live on dread in our own guilded age

   F#m      B
We speak in circles
   F#m      B
We dance in code
  F#m      B
Untame and hungry
   F#m         B
On fire in the cold
  F#m      B
Exhume our idols
  F#m    B
Bury our friends
      F#m      B            F#m
We're wild and weary but we won't give in
