This is the first song on "Modern Guilt".
(Verse 1): DI think I'm stranded but I don't know where
I got this Bbdiamond that don'tC know how to shDine
DIn the sun where these dark winds wail
and these Bbchildren leave their Crulers behDind
As we Bbcross ten Cleagues from a DRubicon
with Bbmatchsticks Cfor my boDnes
If we can Bblearn how to Cfreeze ourFselves aGlive
We can Bblearn to leave these Cburdens to buDrn
(Break): FCast out these Ccreatures of woe
GWho shatter themDselves
FFighting a Cfire withG your bareD hands
(Verse 2, same chords as Verse 1):
Now my journey takes me further south
I wanna hear what the blind men sing
With their fossils and their gypsy bones
I'll stand beside myself so I'm not alone
And how can I make new again
What rusts every time it rains
And the rain it comes, and floods our lungs
We're just orphans in a title wave's wake
(End): BmIf I wake up and see my maker Dcomin'
BmWith all of his crimson and his iron deDsire
BbWe'll drag the streets with the baggage of lDonging
To be Cloved or deGstroyed, from a Fvoid
to a Cgrain of Gsand in your Dhand.
