intro Em x2
Em
we are saints made of plaster , our laughter is canned
Gm
we are demons that hide in the mirror
Em
but the blood on our hands
Gm
paints a picture exceedingly clear
Em
we are brimming with cumbersome , murderous greed
Gm
and malevolence deep and profound .
Em
we do unspeakable deeds
Gm
does our wickedness know any bounds?
( chorus )
Am * Bm * Em Am
something’s gone terribly wrong
G Em
with everyone
Dm Am
all the world is mad
G B Em Am
darkness brings terrible things
G Em
the sun is gone
D Am Asus4 Em Gm Em Gm
what vanity! our sad , wretched fires
( like the beginning , but with an extra chord )
we can’t medicate man to perfection again
we can’t legislate peace in our hearts
we can’t educate sin from our souls
Gm Am *
it’s been there from the start
Em
but the blind lead the blind into bottomless pits
still we smile and deny that were cursed
but of all our iniquities
ignorance may be the worst
