Intro: G, C


G                       C 
When I was just a little boy 
C                       G 
I threw away all of my action toys 
G                  C            G       C 
While I became obsessed with Operation 

G                                   C 
With hearts and minds and certain glands 
C                            G 
You gotta learn to keep a steady hand 
G                    C          G       C 
And thus began my morbid fascination 

D                                               Em 
Tore the spines from out of all of these self-help books 
Am                                Em 
Made myself a gun that not only shoots but looks 
C 
So real 
                            D 
Yeah it shoots through steel 
                G       C 
With rays of darkmatter 
                G       C 
Rays of darkmatter 

G                               C        
Do you wonder where the self resides 
C                       G 
Is it in the head or between your sides 
G                               C 
And who would be the one who will decide 
             G      C 
Its true location 

G                                          C 
And does the thought of all this red and black 
C                         G 
Thought of tongues that taste you back 
G                    C          G       C 
Fill you with the nausea of elation 

D                                            Em 
The noose is loosed around our necks made of DNA 
                 
        D                       Am                      Em 
And every day it's growing tighter, no matter what they do or say 
                C                
Well, you can shoot right through with rays of darkmatter 
        D 
Just before they kick out 
                        G       C 
They kick out the ladder 
                    G       
With rays of darkmatter 
C 
Oh no 
               G         
Rays of darkmatter 
C          G 
Oh no 
                        C 
Yah, like something catching fire 
   G    C   G   C 
Oh no 


G                               C        
Do you wonder where the self resides 
C                       G 
Is it in the head or between your sides 
G                              C 
And who would be the one who will decide 
             G      C 
Its true location
