Thick As Thieves

Bm                              G
Remember how it all began, the apple
 and the fall of man
     D                     A
The price we paid,so the people say
Bm                               
Down a path of shame it lead us, 
G
dared to bite the hand that fed us
    D                         A   
The fairy tale. The moral end. The
                                Bm
 wheel of fortune never turns again
`

==CHORUS==
Bm  G   D   Bm (x2)
(Never turns again)

     Bm                            
The worst of it has come and gone 
       G
in the chaos of millennium
      D                   A
In the falling out of the doomsday 
crowd
     Bm                            
Their last retreat is moving slow, 
  A  G
they burn their bridges as they go
     D                         
The heretic is beatified, he'll 
          A                     Bm
teach the harlot's child to smile

Bm                            G
Wracked again by indecision, should 
we make that small incision
D                        A
Testify to the bleeding heart 
inside?
   Bm                            
We cut, we scratched, we rent, we 
              G
slashed and when he opened up at 
last
        D                          
Found a cul-de-sac deep and black 
     A
of smoke and ash
`

==CHORUS==
Bm  G   D   Bm (x2)
(Deep and black, smoke and ash)

Bm                                
The wicked king of parody is 
   G
kissing all his enemies
        D                  A
On the seventh day of the seventh 
week
    Bm                           
The tyrant's voice is softer now, 
      G
but just for one forgiving hour
   D                  A
Before the rise of his iron fist 
again
`
`
==CHORUS==
Bm  G   D   Bm (x2)
(Fist again)

     Bm                            
I've come tonight, I've come to 
      G
know the way we are the way we'll go
       D                         
Come to measure this the width of 
      A
the wide abyss
   Bm                          
I come to you in restless sleep 
        G
where all your dreams turn 
bitter-sweet
     D                           
With voodoo doll philosophies and 
  A
day-glo holy trinities
      Bm                        
The crooked raft that leaves the 
        G
shore ferries drunken souls aboard
D                               A
Pilgrims march to Compestela visions
 of their saint in yellow
  Bm                        G
All follow deep in trance, lost in a
 catatonic dance
D                            
Know no future, damn the past, 
    A                     F#m
blind, warm, ecstatic, safe at 
       D
last...
