Em7
Well alright,
Eº7
No stars tonight
Em7
The moon must hide
Eº7
Can't bear to see my face
Cm
So many moons have passed
Bbm
So many suns gone down
Ab
Too much blood under the bridge
F
Too many worlds turned upside down
verse 1
D Em
The skies were pure and the fields were green
F#m G
The fading summer, sixteen-seventeen
Bm F#m
The first time I ever drew blood
G A
She was such a beautiful and innocent child
D Em
She never knew my soul was cursed for good
F#m G
I fought to overcome my thirst I thought I could
Bm F#m
But when I kissed her lips then I had no control
G A
And the furies all ran wild
Pre-Chorus
Bm
And when I grasped for life
F#m G A
I always killed the things for which I yearned
Bm F#m
I wish to be a flame and reduce to ashes
G A
But I have never burned
Em A
I long to fly in total freedom
Bm G
and yet these chains keep dragging me down
Em A
I want to be an angel or the devil himself
Bm G
But I am nothing but a creature longing for things I can't have
F#m Bm
And the split goes through my very soul
G A
It´s a wound that never mends
F#m Bm
Our desires are elusive
G A
And the hunger never ends
D Em
When the world has drawn its final breath
G A
And Extinguished all the light
D
There´ll be nothing left
Em G
But a lifeless wasteland
A Bm
And an endless appetite
D Em G
Nothing left but a soundless heartbeat
A
And a ruthless appetite
Instrumental
Bm Gm Bb Gm A4
verse 2
D Em
The preacher's daughter let me in her room
F#m G
In seventeen thirty-two, to love me was her doom
Bm F#m
With her silken blood I wrote a poem of love
G A
Upon her ivory skin
D Em
And the bashful page of Napoleon the Great
F#m G
In eighteen hundred thirteen he stood at the gate
Bm F#m
When I recall his body I can't help but think
G A
To consume him was a sin
Pre-Chorus
Bm F#m
So many victims washing on the shores
G A
An ocean of pure tears...
Bm F#m
So many pleas for mercy, howls of pain
G A
Intoxicating fears
Em A
I used my body just like a bandage
Bm G
I used their bodies just like a wound
Em A
And I'll never know where they disappeared
Bm
But I can see them rising up out my memories now
Bm G
Just like the demons rising up from a tomb!
F#m Bm
And there is no way ever to apologize,
G A
Repent or make amends...
F#m Bm
No release and no redemption
G A
The hunger never ends...
Bridge
D Em
There are those who believe in science
G A
And those who believe in art
D Em
There are those who believe in power and wealth
G A
Or love and matters of the heart
G A
There are those who believe in various gods
Bm C#m7
In nations, and knowledge
Bm C#m7
In heaven and hell
Bm C#m7
The powers of darkness
G A
The assumption of the light
D Bm
But I believe in just one God
G
That of endless and insatiable
G
Immoral and destructible
G
And all consuming appetite
Instrumental
D Bm Gm Bb Gm A4
Outro
D Em
There is a prediction that I now will make
D Em
When the next millennium finally comes
G A
The god most worshiped in this world
G
Will be the God of appetite
Instrumental End
