Am

[Verse 1]
   F    E         C
My voice channeling
  Dm              Am
A circuit's end
    F       E       C
The house we lived in
Dm
Stricken with blight
Am        F               C
  Finding ways to kill the pain

(Kill the pain, kill the pain)
        Dm            Am
Let the river run wild
F     Em        C
Dreams shattering
Dm            Am
Aerial sound

[Chorus]
F         Em
Scrape the lacquer
          D                  Am
Can't you see it's all tarnished?

[Verse 2]
Fm       E    E7
Tried the poise
   D      Dm
To radiate
Am Fm      E7
   Tried my words
   D          Dm
To illustrate
Am        F              Em
  Finding ways to end the pain
                                           E7
(Ways to end the pain, ways to end the pain)
        D             Dm
Let the river run wild
Am        Em
   Dreams shattering
D              Am
Fixing to die

[Chorus]
F           Em
Scrape the lacquer
          D                Am
Can't you see it's all tarnished?

[Post-Chorus]
          Dm       F
The levee breaking
                E     Am   Dm
I can't live to fight once more
    Am     C  Dm F
The levee breaking
                E     C    A Dm
I can't live to fight once more

[Bridge]
    Am                Dm                F
The road to the grave is straight as an arrow
         C             Am             Dm
I'm just staying around to sing your song, baby
    Am                Dm                F
The road to the grave is straight as an arrow
         C             Am             Dm
I'm just staying around to sing your song, baby

[Verse 3]
   Em        F     G
My voice travelling
       Am               G
Soaring bird above your head
    Em        F    Am
The house we lived in
            F        E
Ridden with disease

[Chorus]
           Em
Scrape the lacquer
           Am           A      Am
Can't you see, it's all tarnished?

[Post-Chorus]
            Dm    F
The levee breaking
                      A    Dm
I can't live to fight once more
     C    Dm  F
The levee breaking
                      C   A   Dm
I can't live to fight once more

[Outro]
    Am                Dm                F
The road to the grave is straight as an arrow
         C             Am             Dm
I'm just staying around to sing your song, baby
    Am                Dm                F
The road to the grave is straight as an arrow
         C             Am             Dm
I'm just staying around to sing your song, baby
