Acheron River(Keyboard chords)

	        


verse 1: 
     C 
It's an inorganic rehash 
                   F 
of a process so profound 
       C 
It's a thousand freshly 
sharpened stakes dug 
              F 
deep into the ground 
         F 
It's the heads of all 
                   G 
dissenters and the distant 
          Am  F 
plume of smoke And I 
           G       C    G C 
hope those fuckers choke 


verse 2: 
        C 
Did you hear the dead 
                G 
decaying circus lumbering 
 F            C 
ahead Did you see the 
starving elephants or 
        G            F 
did you turn away instead 
    F 
Man I'm so high and 
                G 
lonesome at the bottom 
       Am  Am 
of the hill  Never thought 
    F 
I'd lose it but it's 
G              C 
looking like I will 



   C 
So get out get out get out 
                       G 
the ropes get out the stones 
              F   C 
and let's get low Get out 
get out get out the way 
        G                F 
I'm drowning this mortal soul 
Am                  G 
Take me down to the river take 
      C 
me to where all the poisons 
F G 
go And let's ride that 
       F      G    C G C

verse 3: 
C

     G              F 
show that I've ever seen

Starts around eleven and 
      G              F 
it's stars all weary me 
    Am 
Cuz I don't try to shake 
            F 
shit up and I don't 
bitch or give a fuck 
Am 
I'm just on the train 
                F

         F(hold) 
thousand different ruts Well 


verse 4: 
C 
  It's the part where 
            Am 
everybody's drinking 
G       F  C 
just to die And the point 
where everyone's got 
Am        G         F 
bloodshot blackened eyes 
C 
Here's the fucking 
        Am   G    F

get out get out the way 
        G                F 
I'm drowning this mortal soul 
Am                  G 
Take me down to the river take
