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
Instrumental Outro Em G D5 D5 x3 Em G D5
