The Meaning of the Ritual Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C]
[G][C][G][C]
[G]

[Verse 1]
My love is [C]selfish
And I [Am]bet that yours i[G]s [Dm]too
[B]What is this peculiar word [Em]called
[Am]truth[C][F#dim][C]

[Verse 2]
[G]My love [C]is selfish
Ad it [Am]cares not who [G]it [Dm]hurts
It [B]will cut you out to satisfy its [Em]thirst
For [Am]the meaning of a [C]ritual
[F#dim]so habitual and cursed
[G]

[Verse 3]
My love [C]is selfish
How it [Am]sep ara[G]tes the earth
[Dm]It t[B]akes every shiny stone
but leaves the [Em]dirt
[G]For the[Am] cowards in the[C] corner who just don[F#dim]'t
know what they're worth

[Verse 4]
They've been twis[B]ted by
a hollow kind of [Em]pain
[G]Oh [Em]I can s[Am]ee it in their eyes[C]
but I ignore it [F#dim]every day
[G]But my love

[Verse 5]
[C]is selfish
And re[Am]members [G]everything[Dm]
Like [B]the first time it was moved
enough to [Em]sing
[G]How it dan[Am]gled on that sta[C]ge just lik[F#dim]e a puppet
on a string
The meaning of a ritual
The meaning of a ritual
The meaning of a ritual
The meaning of a ritual
The meaning of a ritual
Oh the meaning of a ritual
