^D The myriad choices of his fate, set themselves out upon a plate for him to ^E7/Dchoose What had he to ^Dlose, Not a ghost bloodied country, all covered with sleep Where the black angel did weep, not an old city street in the ^E7/Deast Gone to ^Dchoose, And wandering's brother walked on through the night With his hair in his face on a long splintered cut from the ^E7/Dknife of G.T^D. The rally man's patter ran on through the dawn Until we said so long To his ^E7/Dskull-shrill ^Dyell

N.C

Shining brightly red-rimmed and Red-lined with the time Infused with the choice of the mind On ice skates scraping ^E7/Dchunks From the ^Dbells ^D/E ^E7/D ^D

[Verse 2]

^D Cut mouth bleeding razor's Forgetting the pain Antiseptic remains cool good^E7/Dbye So you ^Dfly, To the cozy brown snow of the ^E7/Deast Gone to ^Dchoose, choose again ^D ^D Sacrificials remains make it hard to forget Where you come from The stools of your eyes Serve to realize ^E7/Dfame, choose a^Dgain, And roverman's refrain of the sacrilege recluse For the loss of a horse, Went the bowels and a tail of a ^E7/Drat Come a^Dgain, choose to go ^D ^D

[Verse 3]

^D And if epiphany's terror reduced you to shame Have your head bobbed and weaved Choose a ^E7/Dside to be ^Don, If the stone glances off Split didactics in two Leave the colors of the mouse trails Don't scream, try between If you ^E7/Dchoose If you ^Dchoose, try to lose for the loss of remain come and start, Start the ^E7/Dgame I ^Dche che che che I Che che che ka tak koh ^D Choose to choose ^D Choose to choose, choose to go
