Verse 1
(A minor) (En (F major) gel) (G major)
(A minor) (F major) (A minor) (F major) (G major)
Verse 2
(A minor) I spent many
a night laying on my back
Waiting for the dawn (F major) to pierce
a crack in the (G major) ceiling (E flat major)
(G major) Hanging from (C major) the sky (A minor)
And I envied the boy who grabbed the toy
And ran away (F major) and found the joy
While (G minor) I stood in the shad
(E flat major) ows (C major) wondering why (A minor)
(B minor) Flying towards me, wrapped in laughter
A (G major) woman's face, a terrible taste
Of the (A minor) morning af (F major) ter kisses
and good (G major) byes (B minor)
I can never seem to catch my footsteps
(G major) Have desires they fly away
And (F major) every day I've got to (A minor)
(F major) fight the (G major) Plague (A minor)

Verse 3
How can (A minor) I live an hour like this
When anguish strikes (F major) me like a fist
My (G minor) na kedness (E flat major) exposed,
and I (C minor) can't stand (A minor)
Still I try to remember lips on lips
And hits on the (F major) hips, and ice and fire
an (G major) d gloom and glow (E flat major)
When did they leave (C minor) the man (A minor)
(B minor) In the river of the night I see
(G major) A face that shimmers down at me
But (A minor) like a fall (F major) ing star burns itself (B minor) out
Like a lead leaf scrapes
the gravelled ground
My voice (G major) cries out, a gravelled sound
But (F major) no- one's there to (A minor) hear (F major)
me but the (G major) Plague
Interlude 1
(A minor) (F major) (G major)
(A minor)
Verse 4
Straining hard to see (F major)
Running after me
(G major) I keep pounding
Pounding on the door (A minor)
But it's all so vague (D minor)
(F major) When you meet the Plague (E flat major)
And I keep coming,
I keep coming back (A minor) for more
