[Intro 1]
[D][F][D][F][D][F][D][Bb][D]
[F][D][F][D][F][D][F]
[D][F][D][F]
[D][F][D]
[F]Nothing

[Verse 1]
[D]makes my heart so wild as being
[F]In posses[D]sion of a potent [F]night
[D]Racing down the stairs in a nude
[F]descen[D]sion
Shedding and discarding my hide
[F]But the [G]bold strokes crack so quickly
And [Bb]it's [G]often that I wonder [F]why
[D]Dripping at the slow- motion
rate [F]of surrender
[D]Hanging to my bones as they dry
[F]How can [C]I want something more
than a new [G]hell in which to fry
When [C]I s[D]ee in only black and

[Interlude 1]
white?
[D][F][D][F][D][F][D]
[F]There's a sin

[Verse 2]
[D]ful sort of side of being
[F]So con[D]tained, a bit like being [F]lost
Stum[D]bling through the background
like a small town [F]loner
[D]Quietly a- whisperin' my thoughts
[F]into my [G]cupped hands
Folded and [Bb]monk- like,
at [G]least that's what I've always said
[D]How does writing letters from
the lonely mar[F]gins [D]feel
When there is no hair on my head?
[F]Is the [C]solitude I seek a trap where
[G]I've been blindly led?
[F]Tell me, [D]where then do I go instead?
[F][D]

[Interlude 2]
[F][Dm][D][F][D]
[F][D][F][D][G][F][D][F][D]
[F][D][F][D][F][D]
[F][D][F][D]
[F]When atone

[Verse 3]
[D]ment comes in distant [F]waves
I might [D]wait until the next to [F]break
[D]Choking through forgiveness
at a [F]sunfly prompter
[D]Staring through the back of my [F]face
Its a [G]vulgar, hidden part of be[Bb]ing[Gm]
[G]tethered to the world right [F]now;
[D]Spending all my dollars to
remain a [F]member
[D]Nothing in my eyes but a scowl
[F]Do I [C]bother to define myself bey
[G]ond what they allow?
[F]Have [C]I a[D]lready forgotten

[Outro 1]
how?
