View chords used in this chart
Intro: Am E F G
Am E F G
From rape to right in, too real to live
Am E
should I lie down or stand up
F G
And walk around again?
Am E
My eyes finally wide open up
F G
My eyes finally wide open shut
Am E
I finally found the sound
F G
That heals the touch of my tears
Am E
Smells the taste of all we waste
F G
Could feed the others
Am
But we smother each other
E F
With the nectar and pucker the sour
G
Of sugarsweet weather
Am
It blows through our trees
E
Swims through our seas
F G
Flies through the last gasp we left on this earth
(Am E F G - 4x)
It's a long lonely journey from death to birth
Am
Should I die again?
E F G Am
Should I die around the pounds of matter wailing through space?
E F G Am
I know I'll never know until I come face to face
E F G
With my own cold, dead face
Am E F G
with my own wooden case
(Am E F G)
(Am E F G - 4x)
It's a long lonely journey from death to birth
