Am Em F C Dm Em Am

Am
Just a little rush, babe
                  F
To feel dizzy, to derail the mind of me
Am
Just a little hush, babe
                          F
Our veins are busy but my heartʼs in atrophy
Dm  Am        C            G
Any way to distract and sedate
Dm     Am              F           C
Adding shadows to the walls of the cave

Am             Em   F                  C   Dm
You and I nursing on a poison that never stung
                              Em       Am
Our teeth and lungs are lined with the scum of it
Am                    Em     F
Some whiff of this death and guts
       C               Dm
We are deaf, we are numb
        Em                    Am
Free and young and we can feel none of it

Am
Something isnʼt right, babe
                    F
I keep catching the words but the meaningʼs thin
       Am
Iʼm somewhere outside my life, babe
                          F
I keep scratching but somehow I canʼt get in

Dm       Am          C           G
So weʼre slaves to any sEmblance of touch
Dm      Am                 F           C
Lord we should quit but we love it too much

  Am              Em   F                 C      Dm
Sedated weʼre nursing on a poison that never stung
                              Em       Am
Our teeth and lungs are lined with the scum of it
Am                    Em     F
Some whiff of this death and guts
       C               Dm
We are deaf, we are numb
         Em                    Am
Free and young and we can feel none of it
Am
Darlinʼ, donʼt you, stand there watching, wonʼt you
F
Come and save me from it
Am
Darlinʼ, donʼt you, join in, youʼre supposed to
F
Drag me away from it
Dm  Am        C            G
Any way to distract and sedate
Dm     Am              F           C
Adding shadows to the walls of the cave

Am             Em   F                  C   Dm
You and I nursing on a poison that never stung
                              Em       Am
Our teeth and lungs are lined with the scum of it
Am                    Em     F
Some whiff of this death and guts
       C               Dm
We are deaf, we are numb
         Em                    Am
Free and young and we can feel none of it

 Am              Em   F                 C      Dm
Sedated weʼre nursing on a poison that never stung
                              Em       Am
Our teeth and lungs are lined with the scum of it
Am                    Em     F
Some whiff of this death and guts
       C               Dm
We are deaf, we are numb
         Em                    Am
Free and young and we can feel none of it
