           Am              G                 F 
There's no work in walking in to fuel the talk
                Am             G        F    
I would grab my shoes and then away I'd walk
                         Am             G      F
Through all the stubborn beauty I start at the dawn
                  Am                             
Until the sun had fully stopped
      G       F 
Never walking away from
                   Am 
Just a way to pull apart
          G         F
Dehydrate back into minerals
                    Am      G      F       
A life long walk to the same exact spot

F                   Am G F    
Carbon's anniversary
F                         Am G F
The parting of the sensory
F              Am G F
Old old mystery
F                                   
The parting of the sensory

Am      G                 F             
Who the hell made you the boss?
Am            G                      F 
We placed our chips in all the right spots
F
But still lost
Am  G                     F       
Any shithead who had ever walked
Am             G                        F  
Could take the ship and do a much finer job
Am            G                   F         
This fit like clothes made out of wasps
Am  G                 F             
Aw, fuck it I guess I lost

Am G F

F                         Am G F
The parting of the sensory
F                    A G F
Carbon's anniversary
F                               Am G F
Just part it again if you please
F                              
Carbon's anniversary

Am      G                 F    
Who the hell made you the boss
Am                 G                     F  
If you say what to do I know what not to stop
Am              G                            F
If you were the ship then who would ever get on
Am          G                  F       
The weather changed it for the worse
Am            G                      F
And came down on us like it had been rehearsed
Am                    G                  F
And like we hope, but change will surely come
Am               G                        F
And be awful for most but really good for some
Am        G                     F       
I took a trip to the exact same spot
Am                              G          F   
We pulled the trigger, but we forgot to cock
F
And every single shot
Am  G                  F       
Aw, fuck it I guess we lost

Am G F

Am
Some day you will die and
        G                               F
Somehow something's going to steal your carbon
Am
Some day you will die and
        G                               F  
Somehow something's going to steal your carbon
Am
Well some day you will die somehow and
G                               F
Something's going to steal your carbon
Am
Some day you will die and
          G                              F 
Someone's or something's will steal your carbon
Am
Some day something will die and 
    G
Somehow you'll figure out how
F
Often you will die somehow and

Something going to steal your carbon
Am
Well some day you will die somehow and
G                               F  
Something's going to steal your carbon
