B5 , D5 , A5 , G5 through the entire song except part at end, where it is just B5 , D5 , A. G?es
back to B5 , D5 , A5 , G5 at very end.
B5 D5
Well the spells and incantations
A5 G5
Of the dawn
B5 D5
Get broken by the beat
A5 G5
Of the street-sweeper's drum
And the way, the way is dark
The way is long
In this rotten metropolis
Our common apocalypse
Of storm-drains and neon
B5
When the one
D5
That you dream of
A5 G5
Is gone
Fifteen gallons of poison
That you've poured in
To the breach
That's been left behind
From your open heart
Wine bottle surgeries
And all the pretty, young lovers
Are overflowing in the gutters
And unfolding for one another
Like there's something that you don't know
Like this one here
With her lipstick smeared
And her lukewarm thighs
But that's better than none
When the one
That you dream of
Is gone
B5
Ah the waste-lakes, the drink
And it all starts to swim
D5 A5
Fifteen gallons of poison
B5
The ground cracks open
And the city falls in
D5 A5
Fifteen gallons of poison
B5 D5 A5 G5
