Intro Am 

verse 1 
Am                        Dsus2 
If the strain proves too much 
                 Am 
Give up right away 
                         Dsus2 
If the light hurts your eyes 
                 Am 
Stay in your room all day 

                           C 
When the room fills with smoke 
                    G 
Lie down on the floor 
           Dsus2 
In the declining years 
                 Am 
Of the long war 


verse 2 
                           Dsus2 
Well the blood's in the water 
                           Am 
And the shark's gonna come 
                    Dsus2 
And we swim in the dark 
                        Am 
Until our bodies are numb 

                C 
Blind desert rats in the moonlight 
                   G 
Too far from the shore 
           Dsus2 
In the declining years 
       Am 
Of the long war
 

Instrumental 
Am 
Em G D5 D5 x3 
Em G (Fade in Am) 

verse 3 
                   Dsus2 
Empty room with a lightbulb 
                            Am 
Where the phone starts to ring 
                  Dsus2 
Everybody gets nervous 
                   Am 
Nobody says anything 

Bridge 
                           C 
The next day someone's initials 
                  G 
Show up on the door 
                       Dsus2 
I think I'm gonna crack 
                            Am 
Cant live like this anymore 

                        C 
Ugly things in the darkness 
                    G 
Worse things in store 
                    Dsus2 
In the declining years 
              Am 
Of the long war
