Verse:
Am         D
        An address to the golden door
Am            D
        I was strumming on a stone again
Am              D                           E
        pulling teeth from the pimps of gore when hatched

a tragic opera in my mind...

Am             D
        and it told of a new design
Am               D
        in which every soul is duty bound
Am           D                               E
        to uphold all the statues of boredom therein lies
(run*)                C
the fatal flaw of the red age

Chorus:
               F                      C
Because it was nothing like we'd ever dreamt
             F                           C
our lust for life had gone away with the rent we hated
               D               F                   G
and because it made no money nobody saved no one's life this time

verse:
So we burned all our uniforms
and let nature take its course again
and the big ones just eat all the little ones
that send us back to the drawing board.

       C
In our darkest hours
            G
we have all asked for some
         F
angel to come
             C         G
sprinkle his dust all around
    C                                G
but all our crying voices they can't turn it around
                F                           Am  D  Am  E
you've had some crazy conversations of your own.
