    New Maps Of Hell

Bm               A           G        A
 Porcelain and  alabaster, decaying  ever faster
Bm           A                 G           G
 unaware of imminent disaster open up your eyes.


         A                             Bm
As you ruminate the hopeless sands of time, 
        A                              B5     
did you wander out your days lost and resigned?
              G            A         Bm
   Or re-cre-ate the universes in your mind?


Bm            A            G          A
 Everybody  is bastard  my world is like plaster
Bm                    A                      G           G
 crumbling apart from pressure of the blaster Waiting for a sign

  
        A                             Bm
And the momentary pleasures take their turn 
     A                                Bm
as a wistful boy runs out of things to learn,
                G               A      Bm              A
   The e--pi--sodes of yore are never to return.


Bm                               A                  
Scare up some hope, you're gonna need it just to cope
              G                    Bm
You are the decision, numbers on the line
Bm                                   A
When you bite the dust, was it for purpose or for trust?
               G                        Bm
You'll never relive it, think before you die. 
     Bm       A              G
Yeah,think! Think before you die


                solo
Bm              A            G              A    
 Deficit and  depravation - in the wake of  desperation
  Bm                 A                  G              G
 Rewrite the morals, rectify the nation. Now may be your time


         A                             Bm
As you ruminate the hopeless sands of time, 
       A                             Bm
do you wonder how your life has been defined?
                 G            A             Bm
   You know eternity can't ever change your mind.
              G            A             Bm
   You know eternity can't ever change your mind

  Bm          A            G
So think! Think before you die
     Bm       A              G
Yeah,think! Think before you die
