Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][Em][D]
[Em][D]

[Verse 1]
I got [D]a venom like a snake
running out of my [Em]mouth
(Running out of my mouth,
[G]running out of my mouth)
It's got you [D]burning at the stake
Innocent or [Em]not,
you're not a bet I [G]care to take
And Father [Bm]Ignorance [D]will make
brothers of us [C]all
(Brothers of us [Em]all,
brothers of us all)
[Bm]As he sets our torch [D]aflame
Chasing down the [C]flimsy specters
that we [Em]co- [G]create[Em][G]

[Verse 2]
[G]Over [D]and over, aga[Em]in
[Bm]We k[D]eep that old wheel turning[Em][G][Em]
[G]We spin it around

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

[Verse 3]
I got [D]a terror I can't shake pushing
down on my [Em]lungs
(Pushing down on my lungs,
[G]pushing down on my lungs)
It's got me [D]lying there
awake with a hand
On a [Em]gun while turning
shadows [G]into shapes
Mother For[Bm]tuna, O,
she [D]makes sisters of us [C]all
(Sisters of us all, sis[Em]ters of us all)
When [Bm]the faces in [D]her wake
Look more like our [C]own than the
effigies we [G]immolate[C]

[Verse 4]
[C]Over and over, [G]again
We keep that [D]old wheel
[Em]turn[G]ing[Bm]
Over and over, [D]again
We lay the next spoke [C]down
[D]Over and over,
[G]again (oceans will roll in)
[D]Over and [Em]over, [D]again

[Outro 1]
We spin it around
[D][C][D][Em]
[D][C][D][Em]
[D]
[C][D]
[C][D][C]
[D][C][D][G]
[D][C][D][Em]
[D][D]
