Intro 1

Baug

Behold, I'm walking through

Verse 1
D 
quicksand, I'm told this can't be good
Em 
What good is a man who
sinks in the sand?
G 
Show strength,
Em 
B 
worse is his impaired capacity to think for himself
D 
With no concern for his health,
Em 
he  might as well be in hell
B 
It's hard to tell at what level I fell
Mr.
D 
Alligary dreamed of rings,
Em 
it seems something I'd end up in
And that's scary
B 
D 
I'm afraid of the inferno, but what keeps me up at night is knowing
Em 
D 
Em 
that the heat from boiling sticks   is not around me, but internal.
B 
Blood eternal is the antidote,
D 
Em 
but if I drink it, will I  become a cannibal?
I hope I won't. I don't think hope's a pipe dream,
Baug 
B 
as it might seem when nights make lightning.
D 
Em 
The sky sings a ballad for me.
It might be the last thing I see.
Baug 
B 
D 
So appearances can be the end of a man,
Em 
and the irony of this divine comedy.
When I draw a blank,
Baug 
D# 
I'm out of the sand.  I know the natural law.
B 
Em 
D 
Em 
The man who's thinking that fighting can
D 
hasten the rate of a certain demise.
Em 
He can fight, but I'm sure that he dies.
Baug 
D 
Em 
I can promise that the next time I   am faced with a choice,
the wind will have a taste of my voice
Baug 
I will march on my fate   with a willful assault,
D 
Em 
and never look back, unless I turn to a pillar of salt
Baug 
Em 
I'll try my hand at living without being  scared
of what might be hidden in the shadows
And that goes for the deepest waters
and even the shallows
B 
Em 
Baug 
D 
Em 
So once I wanna close my eyes before I  jump in the water,
I'll go sick and tired
Baug 
Premeditating every meditation I
D 
got running through my mind
Em 
So just this once I want to
B 
Baug 
close my eyes
D 
Em 
Before I  jump in the water,
I'm so sick and tired
Baug 
D 
Premeditating every  meditation I got
Em 
running through my mind
B 
Just what got us into trouble
Baug 
Em 
in the first place
Baug 
B 
Like when the serpent laid no fruit
Baug 
Em 
in     front of her face
Baug 
D#dim 
There's a brand new lesson even
Baug 
G 
D 
G 
Em 
A 
for    the worst case
Em 
Baug 
And we can learn it and someday forget
Em 
D 
Em 
just how bad this curse is
Unfold
B 
The tale of how I became this man of piss and
D 
was unable to understand the mission
Em 
Of  securing a vision with
B 
victory so close to his hands
D 
He listened to a voice in his head to convince
him that fighting was futile
Em 
Saying, you child should keep
Baug 
far    away from home
B 
D 
Em 
You once had hope for life but
now your chance is gone
B 
But look at the state I'm in,
D#dim 
I'm so stained by sin
D 
I  fear that grace will hesitate,
B 
Em 
provided she's invited
Baug 
In my face I'm dragging   two worlds
B 
D 
behind me with shackles that bind me
Em 
And they are quick to remind me that I'm a slave,
B 
Baug 
B 
D 
Em 
that life shall always find me dying slowly
But down till the end of my days,
Baug 
I'll aim to replace  the malaise
Em 
D 
Em 
While a pair I raise,
D 
Em 
which I now can say is falling apart, display of pride
Baug 
Em 
D 
Oh the ones I wanna fill my eyes with this light,
Em 
I think I oughta let it shine
Be mindful of the fact I've got a mindful
B 
D 
Em 
that could be blowing my mind
Baug 
Em 
The only ones I wanna fill   my
Baug 
D 
eyes with   is my legaholus
Em 
Baug 
Let it shine and be mindful of the fact   I've
D 
Em 
got a mifle that can eat away my mind
Baug 
He's who saved us from   our
Em 
troubles in the first place
Baug 
Like when the serpent dangled
B 
Baug 
Em 
fruit in     front of a vase
Baug 
And we're the last ones standing
D 
Em 
even in the worst case
Baug 
His promise is to make   you forget
D 
Em 
just how bad this curse is
B 
Cause now I'm tasting grace,
D 
and I'll take ownership of my two conflicting worlds
Em 
The first is instinct,
Baug 
B 
my need to obey my animal wishes
D 
B 
Em 
The second is piling in my angel wings
And I seek truth when I
find that I'm piled in
B 
Baug 
B 
Till I'm pulled to the brim,
D 
and I hear that still small voice within
Em 
It's got to be
Him, my provider and creator
B 
Who lies to be my savior,
D 
Em 
who said save your burdens for me
And thank me later
B 
Em 
In case it'll save ya from all the
B 
D 
Bm 
Em 
troubles in the first place
B 
Em 
Like when the slurpin' egg on
D 
Em 
fruit is right out of the bake
B 
Em 
It'll be the last one standing even
Baug 
D 
Em 
in the worst case
B 
Baug 
But his promise is to help you forget
D 
Em 
just how bad this curse tastes
B 
Em 
D 
Em 
What?
you
