[Verse 1]
E        A               E
I finally broke into the prison
B             B7           E     E7
   I found my place in the chain
A                    E             Am
   Even damnation is poisoned with rainbows
E
   All the brave young me
G#                           C#m
They're waiting now to see a signal
            A              F#m          B   B7
which some killer will be lighting for pay


[Chorus]
A                      E              Am
   Into this furnace I ask you now to venture
E             B      A          E
   You whom I cannot betray


[Verse 2]

E                A       E
I fought in the old revolution
        B           B7            E    E7
on the side of the ghost and the King
     A
Of course I was very young
         E                   Am
and I thought that we were winning
E                 G#                           C#m
  I can't pretend I still feel very much like singing
          A        F#    B   B7
as they carry the bodies away

[Chorus]
A                      E              Am
   Into this furnace I ask you now to venture
E             B      A          E
   You whom I cannot betray

[Verse 3]
  E             A          E
Lately you've started to stutter
     B              B7        E   E7
as though you had nothing to say
A                          E          Am
  To all of my architects let me be traitor
E                G#                 C#m
  Now let me say I myself gave the order
     A            F#           B      B7
To sleep and to search and to destroy

[Chorus]
A                      E              Am
   Into this furnace I ask you now to venture,
E             B      A          E
   You whom I cannot betray.

[Verse 4]
 E                 A         E
Yes, you who are broken by power
B               B7        E   E7
  You who are absent all day
A                            E                       Am
  You who are kings for the sake of your children's story
E                      G#                     C#m
The hand of your beggar is burdened down with money
A                   F#      B    B7
  The hand of your lover is clay

[Chorus]
A                      E              Am
   Into this furnace I ask you now to venture,
E             B      A          E
   You whom I cannot betray.
