INTRO

C#5                  E5         F#5
C#5                  E5         F#5

C#5                  E5         F#5
C#5                  E5         F#5


VERSE 1

C#m                     E      F#
The inessentials of my soul 

C#m           E            F#
Like flies I dropped them 

C#m            E        F#
Oh, I let them go 
 
C#m                      E           F#
Because nothing would've stopped them. 

CHORUS

E        B       E       B   
 
 F#      C#         F#   C#
           In my holy dotage...

E        B       E       B

G#
More mortal than ever, more mortal than ever 

VERSE 2

C#m                E                F#
                I slowly absorb the news 

C#m             E         F#
But I absorb it wrong 

C#m                     E          F#
And instead of getting weaker 

C#m            E         F#
Yes I just got strong. 

POST-CHORUS

         Amaj7 (Amaj13)        Bbm (Bbm7)
They say history never really repeats itself... 

Amaj7 (Amaj13)       Bbm 
But it nearly always rhymes. 

Amaj7 (Amaj13)                  Bbm 
Fresh from the narrative of the universe... 

Amaj7 (Amaj13)   Bbm
Here they come - crisp new designs! 

C#5                  E5         F#5
C#5                  E5         F#5

VERSE 3

C#m                      E       F#
Dim, diminished seventh of myself 

C#m                        E          F#
My fat mouth is slobbering on 
  
C#                     E          F#
The inessentials of my soul 

C#m                  E       F#
I've reduced them to one.

POST-CHORUS 

Amaj7 (Amaj13)                     Bbm 

Amaj7 (Amaj13)                     Bbm 
Fresh from the narrative of the universe... 

Amaj7 (Amaj13)   Bbm 
Here they come - crisp new designs!
