Intro: Bm- - G- - D- - F#m-- x2


Verse 1:
D5
  So the light now
is my weapon
F#5
   Like a bush dried
withered in the sun
G5
  With this spark I'll
         A5
go up in flames
D5
  I lay my guns 
down but they're
too small to see
F#5
   It's kinda cute how 
I resent to be
G5
  Everything but the
             A5
instrument I am


Chorus:
   E5          F#5 G5
Embrace the empti--ness
   D5             A5  G5 A5
So let it enfold you
  B5
A better life is
what I am after
G5
My first name won't
be my last one
D5
Let the light just
               F#5
drip into your eyes


Verse 2:
D5
  So it's true my
words are contrived
F#5
   I tell lies just to
get into your mind
G5
  I'm as fake as a
         A5
widow's smile
D5
  This mask of glass
is what I choose to wear
F#5
   So I won't ever
have the need to bear
G5
  To tell the truth
              A5
to anyone but me


(Repeat Chorus)


Breakdown Growl:
    B5   G5
And I am dead your
D5    F#5 G5    G5
eyes are light


Interlude: D--F#m--G--A--


Bridge:
           D5
I'm just a bad actor
             F#5
stuck with a shitty script
          G5
All of my lines are
              A5
cheap and the cast is weak
          D5
There was no music for 
               F#5
the first time I got kissed
             G5
There was no femme fatal 
            A5
my mistress wasn't rich
             D5
So I've been formatted
            F#5
to fit your TV screen
               G5
The film went straight to tape
             A5
I'll bow out quietly
D5 F#5        G5  A5
     So quietly
D5 F#5        G5  A5
     So quietly


Outro:
E5                   F#5
  Please do this now I beg
G5
  Duct tape my arms and legs
D5
  Throw me into the sea
 A5
(Please save me please save me)
E5                   F#5
  Please do this now I beg
G5
  Duct tape my arms and legs
D5
  Throw me into the sea
 A5
(Please save me please save me)
E5                    F#5
  Now watch the waves eat me
G5
  Setting my cold heart free
D5
  I'll wash the shore in weeks
     A5
(You can't save me can't save)
E5                    F#5
  Now watch the waves eat me
G5
  Setting my cold heart free
D5
  I'll wash the shore in weeks
     A5                           D(hold)
(You can't save me can't save me now
