We need a mGyth We need an amethyst brBmidge We need a high hanging cEmliff Jump, fall and lift We can mCake it
But we need a myth We need a path through the mist Like in our beds, we were just kids Like what was said by our parents G#m A myth
'Cause what we're after is jC#ust this A myth 'Cause what we're after is just this
We need a mAyth I feel my heart's like a C#mfist Words spilling out of the blessed F#mlips Of any prophet or goDddess
I need a myth Brought back to life by a kiss Scrape away grey cement Show me the world as it was again As it was in a myth A red ribbon to reconnect The lady's head to her neck And to forget that her throat was ever slit
'Cause what we're after is jBbust this It's a mEbyth 'Cause what we're after is just this
And I'm G#msick of all these piF#cture books that tEry To steal some old reflections for their light But desperate measures point to desperate times And that's F#why We need a myth
B(IEbmnstrG#mumenEtal) We're cut adBrift We need a mass uEbmplift The world is trembling and weG#meping Just at the point of belEieving
In a myth The sun that shines on my head The moon that lights me to bed Were two identical twins Inside of a myth I heard the voice of a friend On Lethe's banks, wading in And he said, "Before I forget...”
We need a mC#yth As we lean in to Fmkiss To get two nails through the Bbmwrist To get covered in bF#lood And to get covered in spit
And to forC#give And if all we're taught is a trick Why would this feeling persist? And with the truth closing in I must insist We need a myth
-------------------------- As the song progresses, they use barre chords further up the neck; for example, even though the last set of chords has an F-minor in it, you'll want to do it at the 7th fret instead of the 1st if you want to be as accurate as possible.
