Introdução: F# A E
F# A E F#
It slipped my mind
A E F#
And for a time
A E D
I felt completely free
F# A E F#
Oh what a troubled
A E F#
Silent, poor boy
A E D
A pawn into a queen
F#
I laugh now
G D E B
But later's not so easy
F#
I've gotta stop
G D
The will is strong
E B
But the flesh is weak
F#
Guess that's it
G D
I've made my bed
E B
And I'm lying in it
F# A E F#
I'm still hanging on
A E F#
Bird upon the wires
A E D
I fall between the waves
F# A E F#
I avoid your gaze
A E
Pattern out of phase
A E D
A pawn into a queen
Chorus
E D G B
But it's eating me up
E D G B
It's eating me up
E D G B
It's eating me up (If I could feel all the snakes on my heads)
E D G B
It's eating me up (If I could feel all my snails on my heads)
E D G B
It's eating me up (If I could feel all my snares and my nets)
