Half Step Down (D♯G♯C♯F♯A♯D♯)

Intro

8 bars, one bar of 4/4 per chord shown)

 Well you lie on your back

 And mill through the scars

 So careful you are to

 Surrender a thing

 But Jesus ain't coming

 So don't waste your time

 Not yours and not mine

 You're only dreaming

 And while you were scheming

 With silver machines

Far above the leaves

 I snuck into your scene

 Don't lie there, lurking

 Behind your troubled walls

Wicked as they are

 You're not deceiving

 And if I could find your heart

 I would pull it from your chest

 And smash you with my fist

 Til' it was beating

And if there's a hole inside

Heaven in your bed

 'Cause the angel that you kissed

 Just left you bleeding

 I know it ain't easy

 To keep roundin' on

 When the voices in your skull

 Are always screaming

 Broke into your prison

 And dropped the sleeping guards

 Painted flowers on the bars

 And snuck you out the yard

Paralysed and gleaming

 With visions of new states

 We're wrapped in our embrace

 While we were dreaming
