B
It was exponential Memphis from a thousand feet
G#m
But when we landed we were black and blue
B
Running through the city with apocalypse eyes
E F#
Just miles of streets with nothing to do
B
Your warm heart had been frozen by some cold ideas
G#m
You tried to tell me but it came out wrong
B
I changed my strings, shaved my face and
E F#
Locked myself into the tower of song
E F#
It gets lonely in the tower of song
G#m E B F#
But I, I don't stutter when I sing
G#m E B F#
My melodies grow little wings
G#m E B F#
Huddled here grinding tears into red wine
G#m E B
Meet the darkness with the shine
B
We've got all our sons and daughters virgin blood on our hands
G#m
They'll be the offspring of these ugly wars
B
But if we kill off all our devils, will our angels die?
E F#
I found love living life like a whore
B
So here's some trusty chords and a melody
G#m
A pound of flesh for the brutal throng
B
For the heretics and walking dead and red headed girls
E F#
From the fool up in the tower of song
E F#
I'm a fool in a tower of song
E F#
Make the lonely fool smile, sing along
G#m E B F#
Cause we don't stutter when we sing
G#m E B F#
Our melodies grow little wings
G#m E B F#
Huddled here grinding tears into red wine
G#m E B F#
Meet the darkness with the shine
G#m E B F#
Meet the darkness with the shine
G#m E B
Meet the darkness with the shine
