Intro:             D5            G5       x4
            C5            G5

Verse:
    D5                   G5
The mark of the devil is upon you
      D5                       G5
Your look is no happier than mine
   C5                      G5                D5                  G5
Damnation is waiting in the mirror, but you shouldn't mind
 
       D5                     G5
Their legs start a feeling in your stomach
      D5                              G5
Their eyes knock you backwards with a glance
     C5                          G5            D5              G5
Your pride sinks unnoticed in the river, given half a chance 

Chorus:
       E5            G5
And your past is just a bedroom
      D5            G5
Full of implements of cruelty
      E5                G5                 D5             G5
And the list will bind your eyes as you grow old
      E5             G5
And you want to join the laughter
      D5             G5
Sharing simple shreds of feeling
      E5            G5             D5            G5
But you fidget and your heart is growing cold 

Smiles left unfollowed start to haunt you
Chances that perished long ago;
The devil is waiting in the bathroom with your worthless soul.

The years pull their weight down on your cheekbones
The nights out are hanging from your waist
The years float like dust held in the sunlight, with an aftertaste

And your past is just a bedroom
Full of implements of cruelty
And the list will bind your eyes as you grow old
But you want to join the laughter
Sharing simple shreds of feeling
But you fidget and your heart is growing cold

La la la la la la la la la...

And your past is just a bedroom
Full of implements of cruelty
And the list will bind your eyes as you grow old
But you want to join the laughter
Sharing simple shreds of feeling
But you fidget and your heart is growing cold

And you want to join the laughter
Sharing simple shreds of feeling
But you fidget and your heart is growing cold...

La la
La la la la
La la la la...
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh, oh!
