[Intro 1]
[Am][Asus4][Am][Asus4][Am]

[Verse 1]
Put [Am]to
the sword by an impish whim
[Asus4]Follow me[Am] now to[A]
[Am]a place we begin
Wrought with no anger,
wrought with no fear
Devilish chil[A]dren [Am]playing here
Hidden in silence,
below barren waste
Confusion, hunger,

[Interlude 1]
am I still awake?
[Am][A][Am][G][Am]
[G][A][Am]

[Verse 2]
Have I ever told you about
my time machine?
Sit you down,
I'll tell you [G]everywhere [A]I've been
[Am]I have lived a long li[A]fe, life extraordinaire
Let me tell you about it,
[G]let me take [A]you there
Does it really matter? It's all in the mind
Let me tell you about it,
listen to what you'll [Am]find

[Verse 3]
[Dsus2]I am not [Am]a preacher,
[D]I a[Dsus2]m but a m[Am]an[A]
[Dsus2]You canno[Am]t imagine what[Dsus2]
I've seen an[Am]d do[A]ne[Am]
I have lived [A]a long l[Am]ife,
I have seen the world
[A]I could tell you stori[Am]es,
[A]hai[G]r will stand on [A]end
[Am]Stand

[Verse 4]
amon[A]g the steeples,
stand upon the walls
I have seen a god's face,
I have no [Am]disgrace
[A]I have seen the gods cry,
howling in the wind
Where do I get started?
[G]When can I [A]begin?[Am]

[Verse 5]
[D]I a[Dsus2]m not a p[Am]reacher,
[D]I a[Dsus2]m but a man[Am][A]
[Dsus2]You canno[Am]t imagine what [D]I've seen [Dsus2]and

[Interlude 2]
done
[Esus4][E][C][Bm][Am][G#][E][Am]
[F][G][Am]

[Verse 6]
[Am]Sleep with a light that is dark to my eyes
[F]Father and [G]sons, give me [Am]all of your lies
The brutal truth, that is never a lie
[F]Full moon is [G]out, as [Am]you look to the sky
[Esus4]

[Interlude 3]
[Am][G][Am][G][Am][G][Am]
[G]

[Verse 7]
[Dsus2]I am not a p[D]reac[Am]her,
[D]I a[Dsus2]m but a man[Am][Esus4]
[Dsus2]You cannot ima g[Am]ine what I[Dsus4]'ve seen and d[D]one[Esus4]

[Am]Open your heart and I'll open your soul
[F]Even in [G]quieter [Am]moments, I know

[Verse 9]
[Dsus2]I am not a p[Dm]reac[Am]her,
[Dsus2]I am but [Asus4]a man[Am]
[Dm]You [Dsus2]can not im[Dm]agin[Am]e what I[D]'ve s[Dsus2]een an[D]
[Dsus2]d done[Esus4]

[Interlude 5]
[Esus4][Am][F]

Eerie collection, darkness is there,
wedded to danger
[Am]Betrothed to despair
