The Divine Zero

Em
Maybe I could swin into your 
thoughts like your drugs do.
Em
Paralyze your body, sick and tired 
of waking up to
C
burning eyes and cigarettes. I'm 
falling through the couch like a
C
suicide mission tonight. My God here
 comes the downside.
Em
Wild eyes of terror pray for sex on 
the beach while
C                       G
oceans of kerosene will soak into 
me. I'm
G                C               
not meant for this world, I just 
                  Em
don't see the point.
G                    C
Don't think about it. Don't over 
think about it.
Em             C                 
And life is a joke, but 
    G            C
everything's riding on me tonight.
                  D
Been counting the stars and scars.
           C               D
How I'm becoming a work of art.


[Chorus]

          G         D       
Desperate times and desperate 
  C        D
measures.
          G          C      
I come so close, my hopes are 
  D              C
severed by the downside.
Em        G            C     Em
A million waves in the ocean 
       C       G           D
crash at once to make you smile.


[Verse 2]

Em            G           C
The whispered words, "You better 
hide the bullets". You stayed on the
 phone and talked to me.

Am                                
Day and night. Trigger my 
         G
nightmare once again.
                       Em       
It's fucking loaded in hand. And 
               G    C    G
we'll let the fire rage.
                  Em  G    Am
The smoke and the drowning flames.
   G                            
My bedroom computer light is the 
      G
only menace to my new faux wooden 
blinds.


[Chorus]

          G         D       
Desperate times and desperate 
  C        D
measures.
          G          C      
I come so close, my hopes are 
  D              C
severed by the downside.
Em        G            C     Em
A million waves in the ocean 
       C       G           D
crash at once to make you smile.


[Bridge]

Em         G                  
Now I only pray when it all goes 
     D
down,
           C               G   
I'll be surrounded by all of the 
         Am                D      
ones I loved and cared about, and 
        Em
then burn it down.

[Verse 3]

Em            G                   
And life is a joke, at least I can
 C                  D
 love you naked and tatooed.
             D
Counting the stars and scars.
           C                      
And if the pain is a sound, let's 
Am
slow it down.


[Chorus]

          G         D       
Desperate times and desperate 
  C        D
measures.
          G          C      
I come so close, my hopes are 
  D              C
severed by the downside.
Em        G            C     Em
A million waves in the ocean 
       C       G           D
crash at once to make you smile.


[Bridge]

Em         G                  
Now I only pray when it all goes 
     D
down,
           C               G   
I'll be surrounded by all of the 
         Am                D      
ones I loved and cared about, and 
        Em
then burn it down.

Em               D
Your serotonin's gone.
G               Am  D
The kerosene is gone.

The sunset is gone.

So, hold on.
