>From the bowery to the brimstone, I tried to find your heart.
      E           D(9)     E                         D(9)
With drugs of initiation, bottom of the barrel that drops.
   E               D(9)    E                 D(9)
I understand your causes, sympathize the motivation.
E                   D(9)                 E         D(9)
 But all the details of this war are just self-infatuation.

Manic blood runs thick my friend, are you looking for a clean escape?
        E                       D(9)                    E             D(9)
What's left when the locks have all been broken, young children of authority?
 E                  D(9)                        E                  D(9)
How long can you be agile, dancing between the altar and the mercy seat?
E                  D(9)                     E                  D(9)
Here's a chance to make a choice, are you aware of the fire beneath your feet?

Four Five Six, Pick up the sticks and go home.

the basement lies within us,          the fear comes through the door
C                         Em            C(9)                   A    B
  there's nothing left between us,         the fear becomes a roar

E                     D(9)           E                  D(9)
Once that wheel is in motion, don't lose what you have found.
     E                        D(9)                     E                     D(9)
I'm talking about the burning wheel of tongues, everything that makes it go around.
E                      D(9)         E                     D(9)
We're all born in the devil's scorn, they want to see you die.
     E          D(9)           E                        D(9)
I'm asking you: Are you true?  Everything they say is a lie.
