Tom : C
Em Am
[Verse]
Em
Parading to the masses
Am
We're coming so fresh to death
Em
I've been stealing looks from shadows
Am
You conjure with your purse
Em
Yeah you're walking in stilettos
Am
But your nose is bleeding out
Em
I've been running from the devil
Am
But the devil's on my back
Em
I'm decreasing
Am
Took a leave of absence from the war
Em
If the wall is coming down
Am
Then we got to press the pedal
Em
Got my hands up in the air
Am
I'm saying I can't breathe
Em
I got my hands up in the air
N.C.
I'm saying
Em Am
Hey man get away from me
Em Am
Yeah, hey man get away from me
[Instrumental]
Em
Am (2x)
[Chorus]
G Am Em
Never asked for any favors
C
Nothing I want from you
G Am Em
I've been looking for an answer
C
To keep me from falling through
G Am Em
And I'm waiting for the voice to speak
C
Cause I can't see
G Am Em
I hope we'll hear the sound eventually
[Verse]
Em
I felt their claws obstruct and refuse
Am
Refugees in the new Rome
Em
They've locked our voices in the oven
Am
Like Sylvia at home
Em
My eyes are on the world
My hands are anxious
Am Em
To feel something real
True colors tend to glisten
Am
And then reveal
Em F
Where's the love?
And why are we so far from love?
Em F
Chased by badgers, ducking lights
Em F
Push the dagger when it's right
Em F
Martial law, inshallah
Em F
Mi casa es tuya
Em F
Ghosting like I'm Daniel Johnston
Em F
And I'm locked up in the basement
Em F
Where Satan lies in satin tweets
Em F
And realigns his face lift
Em F
The criminals are laughing with
Em F
Their empty, toothless faces
Em F
We've melted all our gold
Em F
To recommence our idol worship
Em F
We all pretend one day
Em F
We'll be the greatest of the Gatsby's
Em F
Growling mouths with rabies
Em F
And loyal like Sid & Nancy
N.C.
Hey man get away from me
[Instrumental]
Em
Am (2x)
[Bridge]
Em Am
You pretend you got control
Em
Am (2x)
Em Am
Hey man get away from me
[Chorus]
(3x)
G Am Em C
( Em )
G Am Em C
I never asked for any favors
( Em )
Nothing I want from you
G Am Em C
Well I've been praying for an answer
( Em )
To keep me from falling through
G Am Em C
Yeah I'm waiting for the voice to speak
( Em )
Because I can't see
G Am Em C
( Em )
We'll hear the sound eventually
G Am Em C
( Em )
G Am Em
We'll hear the sound
C
( Em )
We'll hear the sound eventually
[Outro]
(3x)
G Am Em C
( Em )
