Intro: D   G  (4x) 


Verse 1:
 
D/F#                 G 
   The terror of the view 
D/F# 
   the emptiness 
        G 
of this room 
D/F#      G 
   always writing 
 D/F#           G 
a   gainst this truth 
D/F#       G          D/F# 
    in the way that a painter 
G                           F#m G F#m Em F#m G F#m A  
  must have a surface to hit 



F#m 
   The paint is flying now 
G 
   breaking the silence at 
D               A 
   the speed of sound 
F#m 
   Hitting the frequency 
G 
   she's reaching 
back at me 
D          A 
  Warm and loud 
         G 
Warm and loud 
                     D   G  (2x) 
Beautiful demons fly out 



Verse 2:
 
D/F#                          G 
   And we're fighting for our lives 
D/F#                           G 
   to fill the corners up with light 
D/F#           G 
   Black spell casting 
 D/F#           G 
a   gainst them now 
D/F#      G          D/F# 
   in the way that a bullet 
G                      F#m G F#m Em F#m G F#m A  
  will go until it is stopped 


Refrain 2:
 
F#m 
   And all the medicine 
G 
   went to my head again 
D            A 
   Late last night 
F#m 
   my bed of saccharine 
G 
   my bad amphetamine 
D        A            G 
   I was lit from within 
                       D   G  
burning with means and ends 



D         G        A 
  And the city life is 
     G 
like sugar high 
D     G       A 
  knocking me out 
   G       D 
keeping me wired 
       G 
It's incredible 
A          G 
  unsteady chemicals 
D      G          A       G 
  come and go the ebb and flow 
A 
  When the measure of your 
G                           D 
work is the measure of your worth 
         A              G 
then you better make it work 



 D   G  (4x) 


Verse 3:
 
D/F# 
   There's some people 
        G 
I could name 
D/F# 
   but it's not 
           G 
the time or place 
D/F#        G 
   to split hairs with 
    D/F#      G 
the guys downstairs 
D/F#        G 
They'll get their 
     D/F#      G 
fair share I'm sure 
    Bb 
The frequency is 
              D   G  
gonna take us there 



D         G 
  And the city kids 
A           G 
  the angry with it kids 
D      G    A 
  hate everything 
    G 
the first time 
D        G 
  It's incredible 
A             G 
  the kind of chemicals 
D     G     A        G 
  knocking around in my mind 
A                     G 
  In the winter of my night I 
                          D 
found a desperate kind of light 
            A               G 
and nothing comes without a fight 



Bridge:
 
Bm            G 
  You want to know 
Bm                        G 
  where the good thoughts grow 
Bm                 G 
  but you ought to know 
Bm                            G 
  where all the good thoughts go 


Verse 4:
 
D             G 
  You can't afford 
          A 
to miss a day 
        G 
Call in sick you 
        D           G 
better stay that way 
 A           G 
Stay that way 


 
D         G        A 
  And the city life is just some 
G        D    G       A 
other guy knocking me out 
   G       D          G 
wasting my time Upper middle class 
A         G D    G        A 
  Infomaniac You will get yours
