Intro
Em
Verse
Em Am
Bring me birds with broken wings, Men with all the answers,
B Em
People who have killed,Give me incurable cancers.
Em Am
Bring me beaches slicked in oil, Give me disregard for doubt,
B Em
Street lights shine on broken Roads where no one is about.
Em Am
I want that hopeless green depression, Punishments without a cause,
B Em
Give me impotent obsession, And disregard for laws.
Em Am
I want the trees in single file, Bring the corpse of something rare,
B Em
Show me children who are sinners, Show me mounds of human hair.
Chorus
Am Em
I climbed up the mountain just to k**l my son,
Am Em
An angel tried to stop me with a ram,
Am Em
Well he said “your mind’s infected”, But I said “you lack perspective”,
B
You gotta walk the bottom if you wanna see the top,
Em Am B Em
La da da da, La da da da, La da da da da da da da da da
Em Am B Em
La da da da, La da da da, La da da da da da da da da da
Verse
Em Am
Give me poison I can swim in, Water I can’t drink,
B Em
Wheels that won’t stop spinning, Teach my children not to think.
Em Am
I want the fruit that tastes like nothing, extra thumbs for every crook,
B Em
Give me lessons without questions, a mild disdain for books.
Em Am
Give me metaphors unraveled, Poetry defined,
B Em
Bring me the head of Dionysius, But please don’t spill out the wine.
Em Am
Trade the future for the present, Trade me ashes for my history,
B Em
I don’t need to look inside,I know the answer to the mystery.
(Ends with this harmonic:)

Bridge
C Em
Oh I know they call me crazy,
C Em
But there will be no turning back,
Am Em
I don’t care if things get ugly.
B
Once the word of god is spoken,
B
There’s no way to take it back,
