[Em][C][Em]
[Bm][Em][C]
[Em][C]
[Em]

[Verse 1]
Crank that siren [Bm]high[C]
Drain the wellspring dry
Map out your coordin[Em]ates
[A][C#dim][C]

[Verse 2]
[Em]
Send out scouts by [Bm]day[Em][C]
Dole out mercenary pay
For restless young subordin[Em]ates[Bm][Em]
It [A]never hurts

[Verse 3]
[C]to give thanks
to the local gods
You never know who [Em]might
be [C#dim]hungry[C]
It never hurts to [Em]scan the windows
on the upper [A]floor[C#dim][C]
I saw [D]a face there once before
when I was younger
[Em]

[Interlude 1]
[Bm][C]
[Em][A][Em]
[C][Em]

[Verse 4]
Set the [Bm]torch
[Bsus4]aflame[Em][C]
Call the [Am]night by [C]name
Stake out your dark position
[Em][A][Em][C]

[Verse 5]
[Em]
Lie in [A]wait[Em][C]
By the gleaming city gate
Try not to lose sight of the [Em]mission[A][C#dim]

[Verse 6]
It never hurts to [C]give thanks
[Am]to the broken bone[C]s
You had to use to build your
[Em]ladder
[A][Em][C]

[Verse 7]
[Em]
Moment close at [Bm]hand[Bsus4][Bm]
[C]Half of you will never un[Am]derstand[C]
And it doesn't really matter
[Em][A][C#dim][C]

[Verse 8]
[D]
Big smile on my [A]face[C]
Capsule just in case
Underneath [Am]my tongue
[Em][Bm][D][C]

[Verse 9]
[Em]
Voices on the [Bm]breeze[C]
I heard voices once like [D]these
when I was younger
[Em]Bloo[G]d rushing to my face[Em][C]
I know that [Am]sweet warm [Bm]taste
And the [B]bitter [Em]trace

[Verse 10]
Storm right down that [Bm]hill[C]
If [Am]I don't, no[C] one will
Follow me right through the chaos
[Em][A][C#dim][C]

[Verse 11]
[Em]
This whole house is [Bm]doomed[Am]
Even the big parts get con[C]sumed
Pre[Am]pare a [C]grave for Menelaus
[Em]

[Verse 12]
[Bm][A]
It never hurts [Am]to give thanks
to the [C]navigator
Even when he's spitting out
random [Em]numbers
[A][C#dim][C]

[Verse 13]
[Em]
I knew what those figures
[C#dim]meant[C]
And what they hoped to rep[D]resent
When I was [Em]younger
