[Intro 1]
[G][Bm][F#m][Bm][D][Em][D]

[Verse 1]
[G]Loud,
[Bm]subaltern city [C]streets,
Bellies [Em]wild [D]with discon[G]tent;
Tall, glass [Bm]buildings,
where [Em]we meet
Watching [C]classes in descent
[D]

[Verse 2]
[C]
Whoever [D]made these [C]robot angels,
[D][C]
Made these [D]urban [C]trash[D]
[Em]crustaceans;
[C]They occupy the same [G]streets,
[Bm][Em]
And we fill the [C]day with locusts
[G]and mag[Bm]azines

[Verse 3]
[Am]Just south of he[C]re, utop[Em]ia for sixty bones[G],
[Am]euphoria
They're [C]keeping cartoon
main streets [Em]lit
And all these [Am]puppet cultures [C]learn
Every [Em]first world has [G]a third; only l[Am]ove escapes this
[C]glass metropol[G]is[C]

[Interlude 1]
[G][C][G][C][G][D][G]

[Verse 4]
Now [G]information without flesh
Means your body's just a drive,
Loading [C]up with life and death:
[G]The after- human has arrived

[Verse 5]
[G]Melancholy [Bm]and relief
[G]For [Bm]the things we never know,
[Em]
A constellation of defeat
[C]In this sid[D]ewalk
shadow [C]show

[Verse 6]
Whoever [D]made these [G]robot [C]angels,
[D][C]
Made these [D]urban [C]trash[D]
[Em]crustaceans;
[C]They occupy the same [G]streets,
[Bm][Em]
And we fill the [C]day with locusts
[G]and mag[Bm]azines

[Verse 7]
[Am]Just south of here[C], utopia for s[Em]ixty bones[G],
[Am]euphoria
They're keeping [C]cartoon
main streets [Em]lit
And all these [Am]puppet [C]cultures learn
Every [Em]first world has [G]a third; only
[Am]love escapes this [C]glass metropol[G]is

[Verse 8]
[G]
Let your eye[D]s g[C]o[G]
To [Em]Llano[D][C][G]
Out the win[Am]dow[C][G][C][G]
To [Em]the last maypole.
