Verse 1
(D major) (E major) There is lambswool under
my naked feet (A major)
(F sharp minor) The wool is soft and warm
Gives (C sharp major) off some kind of heat
A salaman (D major) der scur (A major) ries (D major) into
flame (A major) to (D major) be des (A major) troyed
(D major) Imaginary creatures are (A major) trapped
in birth on cellu (E major) loid
The (F sharp minor) fleas cling to the golden fleece
(C sharp major) Hoping they'll find peace
Each (C sharp minor) thought (D major) and (C sharp minor) gesture
(D major) are (A major) caught in (D major) celluloid
(C sharp minor) (D major) There's no hiding in memory
There's (A major) no room to (D major) avoid
Verse 2
The crawlers cover the floor (E minor)
in the red ochre cor (D major) ridor
For my second sight of people, (E minor)
they've more lifeblood than before (D major)
They're moving in time (E minor) to
a heavy wooden (D major) door
Where the needle's eye is wink (E minor) ing,
closing on the poor
The carpet (F sharp minor) crawlers heed their
caller (B minor) (F sharp minor) s (A major)
"We've gotta get in to
get out (G major) (A major) (G major) (A major)
We've gotta get in to

Verse 3
(D major) There's only one direc
(E minor) tion in the faces that I see (D major)
It's upward to the ceil (E minor) ing,
where the chamber's said to be (D major)
Like the forest fight for sun (E minor) light,
that takes root in every tree (D major)
They are pulled up by the mag (E minor) net,
believing they're free
The carpet (F sharp minor) crawlers heed
their callers (A major)
"We've gotta get in to
get out (G major) (A major) (G major) (A major)

Verse 4
(D major) Mild- mannered supermen
are held (E minor) in kryptonite
And the wise (D major) and foolish virgins giggle
with their (E minor) bodies glowing bright
Through (D major) the door a harvest
feast is (E minor) lit by candlelight
It's the (D major) bottom of a staircase that
spirals (E minor) out of sight (F sharp minor)
The carpet crawlers heed their
callers (A major)
"We've gotta get in to
get out (G major) (A major) (G major) (A major)
We've gotta get in to get out (G major)
(A major) (G major) (F sharp minor) (A major)
(G major) (A major)

We've gotta get in to get out"
(G major) The porcelain mannequin
with shattered skin fears (D major) attack
And the eager pack lift up their (C major) pitchers,
they carry all they (G major) lack (E minor) (D major) (E minor)
The liquid has (D major) congealed,
which has seeped out through the crack
And the tickler takes his stickleback
The (E minor) carpet crawlers
heed their (D major) callers
"We've gotta get in to get out (E minor)
We've gotta get in to get out
We've (D major) gotta get in to get out" (E minor)

get out (E minor)
We've gotta get in to get out (D major) "

get in to get out
We've (D major) gotta get in to
