Flash Delirium Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Bb]Mild[Dm] appr[F]ehension
Blank [Dm]dreams of the coming [E]fun
[F]Distort the odds of a turnaround
[Dm]Gut screams out next [A]to none
So turn [B]it on
Tune it [E]in
And stay iner[A]t
You say [F]"I've got the backbone"
The back [Dm]way to escape the g[A]un
[F]Climbing a tree with a missing limb
And [Dm]not saving a[A]nyone
And now it [B]hurts
To stay [E]at home
And see
[A]Flash
The mirror ball's throwing mold
[Dm]You can't get a grip
if there's nothing to hold
See the [B]flash catch a white
lily laugh and wilt
But if you [E]must smash a glass

[Verse 2]
first fill it to the hilt
[F]Plants
As far as I know are still
[C]Still bending tow[A]ard the light
And if we [F]dance
Until the heart explodes
It'll [Dm]make this place ignite
[A]And[F] even if this hal[G]l collapses
[C]I can stand by my pillar[A]
of hope [Am]it's [F]just
[Dm]A case of flash deli[A]rium

[Verse 3]
[F]Here's a growing culture
Deep inside a corpse
[Dm]Ages [E]stuck together
[A]Takin' it to the source
[F]Timeless desperation
[C]Pictures on [F]a screen [C]scream
[Dm]"Hey people,
[A]what does it mean?"

[Interlude 1]
[A][B][A][E][A]
[Dm]

[Verse 4]
[F]Comfort keeps us [Fm]nice
So [C]quick to [G]donate [A]everything
(nothing arrives)
[B]Die wolken drifting blinding smiles
circ[E]ling (einkreisen)
[F]And time's [Fm]tingling [Ab]spin[Fm]es[C]
At[A]taching hands to [B]floor
The [E]rosy- tinted [A]flash

[Verse 5]
The hot dog's getting cold And you'll [Dm]nev
er be as good
as the Rolling Stones
Watch the [B]birds in the
airport gathering dirt
Crowd the [E]clean magazine chick lifting
up her skirt

[Verse 6]
(Why close one eye and try to [E]Pledge
allegiance to the sun
When plastic ghosts start
terrorizing everyone
Geomet[F]ric troops aligning
Carried up to the burial
mounds
My earthbound heart is heavy
Your heartbeat keeps things light
Like [C]the violence forever threatening
the night
And even if this hall collapses
I [Am]can stand by my pillar of
hope and trust)

[Verse 7]
Lines when I close my eyes and just [F]Aim
blindly at the sun
And hear love
When the ghosts start singing
ter[Dm]rorizing every[A]one
[F]Geometric tro[G]ops ali[C]gning
Carried [G]up to [Am]the burial
[G]mounds [F]with gold
It's a heavy load but [C]your
[Am]You rhythm makes it light and explode
[F]Like a violent star keeps
[Dm]threatening the [A]night
[F]And even if this [G]hall [C]collapses
I can stand by my [Am]pillar of hope [A]and [B]trust
That our heads [E]won't bust

[Verse 8]
[F]Sixty six fifty five [Ab]red battleships
[G]Forty earth- like [C]planets
Three [A]holes two tits
One [F#]fork in its side
Zero [E]tears in their eyes

[Verse 9]
[F]Sue the spiders
Sink the Welsh
[Ab]Stab your Facebook
Sell [E]sell sell[C]
Undercooked
Overdone
[A]Mass adulation not so funny
[B]Poisoned honey
Pseudo science
[E]Silly money
You're my honey
