Fistful Of Swoon

    Am        C
The stench of sulfur
E               C
climbing up the drain
Am           C
open up your chest
E               C
your heart would smell the same
Am            C
you got a lot of nerve
E               C
defyn' your old man's word
Am            C
blood on your boots
E               C
you got lust in your veins

    Am        C
The shriek of sirens
E              C
singing out of tune
Am            C
a dozen black roses
E            C
in a hideous room
Am            C
you got a swagger
E                    C
you got a fistful of swoon
Am            C
blood on your hands
E                  C
steady that silver spoon


[Chorus]

            Am          C
Though your towers were tall
                     Dm
and your powers were grand
                   E
you could not understand
                  Am
how you fell from great heights
                      C
and you burrowed with speed
                  Dm
a kingdom you did lead
               E      C     E
from heaven to hell


[Verse]

Am               C
Cast from the garden
E            C
with cunning and rage
Am               C
biding your time
E            C
through dark and empty days
Am               C
trade in your canons
E            C
your tenants and rules
Am               C
for pandemonium
E            C
high capital ruse

Am       C
Ashes to ashes
E            C
dust to dust
Am      C
all for not
E            C
if not for all of us
Am     C
mighty king
E            C
you held the reins
Am               C
you drove your chariot
E            C
right down the drain


[Chorus]

            Am          C
Though your towers were tall
                     Dm
and your powers were grand
                   E
you could not understand
                  Am
how you fell from great heights
                      C
and you burrowed with speed
                  Dm
a kingdom you did lead
               E      C     E
from heaven to hell

            Am          C
Though your towers were tall
                     Dm
and your powers were grand
                   E
you could not understand
                  Am
how you fell from great heights
                      C
and you burrowed with speed
                  Dm
a kingdom you did lead
               E      C     E
from heaven to hell
