||INTRO|| G Am G Am G Am G Am C I'm closer to the Golden Dawn Immersed in Crowley's uniform G Of imagery C I'm living in a silent film Portraying Himmler's sacred realm G / Gsus4 / G / G Of dream reality Cm I'm frightened by the total goal F2 Drawing to the ragged hole G Em C And I ain't got the power anymore G Am Asus2 A No I ain't got the power anymore D I'm the twisted name on Garbo's eyes Living proof of Churchill's lies A I'm destiny D I'm torn between the light and dark Where others see their targets A Divine symmetry F Should I kiss the viper's fang G Or herald loud the death of Man A F#m7 Em7 D I'm sinking in the quicksand of my thought D Dsus2 A And I ain't got the power anymore E7 C#7 F#m7 Don't believe in your- self Cdim E Don't deceive with belief C#dim Bm7 Knowledge comes with death's release Cdim A F#m7 E7 E Ah------------------ Ah-------------------Ah---------- D I'm not a prophet or a stone age man Just a mortal with the potential of a superman A A11 A I'm living on D I'm tethered to the logic of Homo Sapien Can't take my eyes from the great salvation A A11 A Of bullshit faith F If I don't explain what you ought to know G You can tell me all about it On the next Bardo A F#m7 D I'm sinking in the quicksand of my thought D Dsus2 A And I ain't got the power anymore E7 C#7 F#m7 Don't believe in your- self Cdim E Don't deceive with belief C#dim Bm7 Knowledge comes with death's release Cdim A F#m7 E7 E Ah------------------ Ah-------------------Ah---------- A E7 C#7 F#m7 Don't believe in your- self Cdim E Don't deceive with belief C#dim Bm7 Knowledge comes with death's release Cdim A F#m7 E7 E Ah------------------ Ah-------------------Ah---------- ||Repeat the same chords but without lyrics until song fades||
 the tricky chords that I've changed and used are 
 
       E A D G B E
 C#7 = X 4 6 4 6 4
Cdim = X X 1 2 1 2
C#dim= X X 2 3 2 3

 All the F#m's should be played with the 7th as with the Bm's
Thats it... Enjoy... I recommend you to hear both versions...listen to the song for timing.
