[Intro]
C C/B Am G
[Verse 1]
CHand me your C/Bhand, let me Amlook in your Geyes
As my Clast chance to feel hC/Buman beAmgins to vapoGrize
CMaybe it’s the C/Bheat in here, Ammaybe it’s the presGsure
FYou ought to head for the exits, the sooner the better
[Chorus]
I am this Cgreat, unsC/Btable Ammass of blood and fGoam
And Cno one in her rC/Bight mind would Ammake my home her hGome
My heart’s an Fautoclave
My heart’s an Cautoclave
[Verse 2]
When I tCry to open C/Bup to you I Amget completely Glost
CHouses swallowed bC/By the earth, Amwindows thick with fGrost
CAnd I reach deep dC/Bown within, but the pAmathways twist and tGurn
And there’s Cno light anywC/Bhere, and nAmothing left to bGurn
[Chorus]
I am this Cgreat, unsC/Btable Ammass of blood and fGoam
And Cno one in her rC/Bight mind would Ammake my home her hGome
My heart’s an Fautoclave
My heart’s an Cautoclave
[Verse 3]
I drCeamt that I was C/Bperched atop a thrAmone of human skGulls
On a clCiff above the oC/Bcean, howling wAmind and shrieking seaGgulls
And the dCream went on foC/Brever, one sAmingle static fraGme
SomeCtimes you want to gC/Bo where everyAmbody knows your Gname
[Chorus]
I am this Cgreat, unsC/Btable Ammass of blood and fGoam
And Cno one in her rC/Bight mind would Ammake my home her hGome
My heart’s an Fautoclave
My heart’s an Cautoclave
