Verse

C#m                        E           G#
Why'd you cut holes in the face of the moon base?
          B              C#m
Don't you know about the temperature change
       E          G#
In the cold black shadow?
        B           A
Are you mad at your walls
   B              C#m               E             G#
Or hoping that an unknown force can repair things for you?
       B                 C#m                     E         G#
Pardon all the time that you've thrown into your pale grey garden?
       B               A           B           A
If the ship will never come you've got to move along

A

Chorus

C#m         E            G#                 B       C#m
Even a bird would want a taste of dirt from abyssal dark
C#m            E             G#                          
        A
The prick of a feather could make a kingdom burn and the bloodshed start
B           C#m
The falling apart
C#m          E          G#
Made me a shadow in the shape of wonder
    B        C#m
The waves of black
C#m            E           G#                      B 
       A
If she's going under I can hold my breath till the sky comes back
   B            A              B
Or drown like a rat, rat, rat
A             B
He's a rat!

Solo

G#
To catch a monster
A
We make a movie
A#
Set the tempo
B(with fill)
And cut and cut its brains out
A - G#
C#m     F#                A
It will inspire on the burning pyre
G#
Half the distance
A
Half the motion
A#
Communication
B(with fill)            A - F#m - G#
It's easy as the ocean

End
