Torches

D

[Verse 1]
D                                 
I got a venom like a snake running
           Em
 out of my mouth
                          G
(running out of my mouth, running 
out of my mouth)
             D
It's got you burning at the stake
            Em                     
Innocent or not, you're not a bet I
 G
 care to take

[Chorus]
           Bm             D  
And Father ignorance will make 
                 C
brothers of us all
                     Em
(brothers of us all, brothers of us 
all)
      Bm              D
As he sets our torch aflame
                 C              
Chasing down the flimsy specters 
         Em          G
that we co-create

[Post-chorus]
Bm
Over and over, again
             D            G
We keep that old wheel turning
Continúa después del anuncio
                  D
We spin it around

[Verse 2]
D                                 
I got a terror I can't shake 
              Em
pushing down on my lungs
                           G
(pushing down on my lungs, pushing 
down on my lungs)
            D
It's got me lying there awake
                 Em                
with a hand on a gun while turning 
        G    Em
shadows into shapes

[Chorus]
          Bm           D          
Mother Fortuna, O, she makes 
         C
sisters of us all
                    Em
(sisters of us all, sisters of us 
all)
         Bm           D
When the faces in her wake
                   C           
Look more like our own than the 
             G        C
effigies we immolate

[Post-chorus]
                G
Over and over, again
                          Bm
We keep that old wheel turning
                D
Over and over, again
                      C
We lay the next spoke down
                G
Over and over, again (oceans will 
roll in)
                D
Over and over, again,         Let's 
turn it around!
