Chuck Ragan - God Deciding

i thought i’d upload this as it is a fully class song , originally by hot water
music , but then done as a solo artist by chuck ragan . the bear man himself . it’s
pretty hard to recognise where the verses space , if at all , so i’ve just dissected them myself .

intro : C#5
verse 1 :
C#5 Asus2
transgressions are made
E
while cowards convey with a demon’s ear ,
C#5
fixed and set to slay .
Asus2 E
while the statue awaits to be whittled away
C#5
with a mock of a slogan hiding filth with fear .
Asus2 E
never to learn , only to burn . . . and be burned .
C#5
branded straight through slate .
aus2
clear as common day .
E C#5
what shall be the mark to be made?

chorus :
Asus2 B5
when we crush it all to burn it down
C#5
without sight , without sound .
Asus2
not anything but a casualty forgotten in the ground .
B5 C#5
a simple shell , that’s solemn still – – without sight , without sound .

interlude : C#5

verse 2 :
C#5 Asus2
make a martyr , a pedestal with ribbons of slaughter .
E
feed the altar , stoke the fire it will take over .
C#5
ignore the cut . . . the skin with callus as well as interest .
Asus2 E
if all are reckless none is to profit , none is to win it .
B5 Asus2
so who will pay for all the years , all the lives , from either side?
E
all the tales , all the time of living blind playing “god deciding?”
C#5 asu2 E
and who will die , next in line , for the lie : justified
C#5 Asus2
for the rise , sitting high playing “god deciding?”
E C#5
walk away from the rage and revenge?
Asus2 C#5
inhumane consequence comes in time playing “god deciding . ”
Asus2 E
and who will fall in line to arrive out of sight and out of mind?

outro :
E
out of mind?
E
out of mind?
