The Divine Zero

	  		 

Verso 1: 

Em 
Maybe I could swin into your thoughts like your drugs do. 

Em 
Paralyze your body, sick and tired of waking up to 

C 
Burning eyes and cigarettes. I'm falling through the couch like a  

C 
suicide mission tonight. Oh God here comes the downside. 

Em  
Wild eyes of terror pray for sex on the beach while 

C                       G 
Oceans of kerosene will soak into me. I'm  
  
G                C                                 Em 
not meant for this world, I just don't see the point. 

G                    C 
Don't think about it. Don't over think about it.   

Em             C                     G            C 
And life is a joke, but everything's riding on me tonight. 

                  D 
Been counting the stars and scars.  

           C               D 
How I'm becoming a work of art. 



          G         D         C        D 
Desperate times and desperate measures. 

          G          C        D              C 
I come so close, my hopes are severed by the downside.  

Em        G            C     Em       C       G           D 
A million waves in the ocean crash at once to make you smile. 


Verso 2: 

Em            G           C 
The whispered words, "You better hide the bullets". You stayed on the phone and talked to me. 

Am                                   G 
Did I trigger my nightmare once again? 

                       Em                      G    C    G 
It's fucking loaded in hand. And we'll let the fire rage.  

                  Em  G    Am 
The smoke and the drowning flames.  

   G                                  G 
My bedroom computer light is the only menace to my new faux wooden blinds.  



          G         D         C        D 
Desperate times and desperate measures. 

          G          C        D              C 
I come so close, my hopes are severed by the downside.  

Em        G            C     Em       C       G           D 
A million waves in the ocean crash at once to make you smile. 


Bridge: 

Em         G                       D 
Now I only pray when it all goes down,  
  
          C               G            Am                D              Em 
I'll be surrounded by all of the ones I loved and cared about, and then burn it down.

Em            G                    C                  D 
And life is a joke, at least I can love you naked and tatooed. 

             D 
Counting the stars and scars.  

           C                      Am   
And if the pain is a sound, let's slow it down.
