[Intro]
Em Am
 
[Verse]
 
  Em
Parading to the masses
                          Am
We're coming so fresh to death
  Em
I've been stealing looks from shadows
                       Am
You conjure with your purse
 Em
Yeah you're walking in stilettos
                          Am
But your nose is bleeding out
 Em
I've been running from the devil
                      Am
But the devil's on my back
 Em
I'm decreasing
                                Am
Took a leave of absence from the war
 Em
If the wall is coming down
                          Am
Then we got to press the pedal
 Em
Got my hands up in the air
                    Am
I'm saying I can't breathe
 Em
I got my hands up in the air
 N.C.
I'm saying
                       Em Am
Hey man get away from me
Em                         Am
 Yeah, hey man get away from me
 
[Instrumental]
 
Em Am (2x)
 
[Chorus]
 
G Am
 Em
Never asked for any favors
 C
Nothing I want from you
G Am
 Em
I've been looking for an answer
 C
To keep me from falling through
G Am
 Em
And I'm waiting for the voice to speak
 C
Cause I can't see
G Am
                      Em
I hope we'll hear the sound eventually
 
[Verse]
 
 Em
I felt their claws obstruct and refuse
                    Am
Refugees in the new Rome
 Em
They've locked our voices in the oven
                Am
Like Sylvia at home
 Em
My eyes are on the world
My hands are anxious
    Am             Em
To feel something real
True colors tend to glisten
           Am
And then reveal
               Em F
Where's the love?
And why are we so far from love?
     Em                       F
Chased by badgers, ducking lights
       Em                   F
Push the dagger when it's right
       Em          F
Martial law, inshallah
    Em       F
Mi casa es tuya
        Em                  F
Ghosting like I'm Daniel Johnston
        Em                F
And I'm locked up in the basement
   Em                      F
Where Satan lies in satin tweets
     Em                 F
And realigns his face lift
      Em                    F
The criminals are laughing with
   Em                   F
Their empty, toothless faces
   Em                  F
We've melted all our gold
   Em                   F
To recommence our idol worship
      Em            F
We all pretend one day
      Em                     F
We'll be the greatest of the Gatsby's
      Em               F
Growling mouths with rabies
     Em                F
And loyal like Sid & Nancy
 N.C.
Hey man get away from me
 
[Instrumental]
 
Em Am (2x)
 
[Bridge]
 
Em                      Am
 You pretend you got control
 Em Am (2x)
Em                     Am
 Hey man get away from me
 
[Chorus]
 
(3x)
G Am
Em C (Em)
 
G Am
        Em              C
I never asked for any favors
                   (Em)
Nothing I want from you
G Am
                Em              C
Well I've been praying for an answer
                         (Em)
To keep me from falling through
G Am
          Em                C
Yeah I'm waiting for the voice to speak
               (Em)
Because I can't see
G Am
               Em        C   (Em)
We'll hear the sound eventually
G Am
Em C (Em)
G Am
               Em
We'll hear the sound
                        C     (Em)
We'll hear the sound eventually
 
[Outro]
 
(3x)
G Am
Em C (Em)
