Intro: D F    C D (x2) 
 
 
verse 1 
     D           F 
All the pieces where they ought to be 
     C           D 
But it's clear that he don't look like me 
     D        F    
Pick a place around the table talk 
     C          D 
Make a push to wake the comatose 
         Bb 
Say you pause to say what's wrong 
             G            C 
And quickly blow up the cover 
          Bb                                      G         C     D 
There?s a way through fogs as long as there?s a light to discover it 
 
D F    C D  
 
 
Bridge 1 
          E      Bb          F               C 
Like a twisted stick, let's dig through the sick 
     D      Eb     Bb 
And find a level space 
          D 
Cinch to say 
 
D F    C D 
 
 
verse 2 
     D      F   
It's a gut that fears all things unknown 
    C          D 
And a link within the brain you know 
    D        F   
Not a shame to say the instinct's there 
    C        D 
But a virtue to deny the bait 
          Bb 
Know the cause and move to gauze and deftly 
G          C 
Tratar o sangue 
        Bb 
In the lawn there's room to move 
              G         C    D 
As there's a need to uncover it 
 
D F    C D 
 
 
Bridge 2 
       E      Bb          F                C 
As a choker sucks, let's sift through the muck 
     D         Eb    Bb 
And lift this dingy veil 
          D 
Same old tale 
 
D F    C D 
 
 
G         C           F       Bb 
Get mixed in this crippling fixture 
G         C           F       Bb 
Try and approach the hidden mixtures 
G         C           F       Bb 
Get mixed in this crippling fixture 
G         C           F       Bb    D 
Try and approach the hidden picture it 
 
D F    C D 
 
 
Bridge 3 
         E        Bb           F                  C 
For a misplaced stash, let's search through the trash 
      D          Eb       Bb 
And right this ignorant lurch 
        D 
Wicked urge 
 
D F    C D 
 
 
G          C    F       Bb 
Raise the gab above a whisper 
G          C        F       Bb 
Speak to salve a spoiling blister 
G          C    F       Bb 
Raise the gab above a whisper 
G        C       F       Bb    D 
Talk to cure a blister picture it 
 
 
Outro D F    C D x4
