[Intro 1]
[Am][G][F][C][Am][G][C][Am][G][F][C][F]
[G][Am]
[G]One hand on [F]this wily comet

[Verse 1]
[C]
[Am]Take a drink[G] just [C]to give me some weight
[Am]Some uber-[G] man I[F]'d make[C]
[F]I'm barely a vapor
[G]

[Verse 2]
[Am]They[G] shone a chl[F]orine light [C]on
[Am]A host[G] of individu[C]al sins
[Am]Let'[G]s carve my a[F]ging face off[C]
[G]Fetch [C]us a knife
[G]Start with my eye[C]s
[G]Down [C]so the lines
[F]Form a grimacing [G]smile

[Verse 3]
[Am]Close your eyes [G]to c[F]orral a virtue[C]
[Am]Is this fool[G]ing anyo[C]ne else?
[Am]Never work[G]ed so lo[F]ng and hard
[C]To [F]cement a failure
[G]

[Verse 4]
[Am]We can blow [G]on o[F]ur thumbs
and pos[C]ture
[Am]But the lone[G]ly are s[C]uch delicate things
[Am]The [G]wind from [F]a wasp
could blow [C]them
[G]Into the sea
[C]With sto[G]nes on [C]their feet
[G]Lost to the [C]light [F]an d the
loving we [G]need

[Verse 5]
[F]
Still to [C]come[F]
The worst [C]part and you [G]know [F]it
There is a [C]numbness
[F]In your hea[C]rt and it's gro[G]wing

[Interlude 1]
[G][Dm][Am][G][F][C][Am][C][Am]
[G][F][C][F][G][Am][G][F][C][Am][G][C]
[Am][G][F][C][F][G]

[Verse 6]
[Am]With burnt [G]sage [F]and a forest of [C]by gones
[Am]I click my hee[G]ls
[C]Get the devils in line
[Am]A list of th[G]ings I c[F]ould lay the[C] blame on
Might [F]give me a way [G]out
[Am]But with each [G]turn I[F]t's this

[Verse 7]
front [C]and center
[Am]Like a dart [G]stuc[C]k square in your eye
[Am]Every post[G] you c[F]an hitch your [C]faith on
Is a [G]pie [C]in the sky
[G]Chock full [C]of lies
A [G]tool we de[C]vise
[F]To make sinking stone[G]s fly

[Verse 8]
[F]
And still to [C]come[F]
The worst [C]part and you [G]know [F]it
There is a [C]numbness
[F]In your hea[C]rt and it's gro[G]wing

[Outro 1]
