Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
Verse
Close your eyes, your Christ has come,
The crippled boy that you once knew,
The charmed enigma, chosen one..
Painted lips, skin ripped and torn,
Come touch and feel and lick and smell,
This envy I have known so well,
Pre-chorus
(let the chords ring)
Everybody wants, everybody says,
Everybody begs, in time...
Verse 2 and the second pre-chorus are exactly the same.
Chorus
And you will be the first to fall,
Every feeling will dissolve,
We are - silver..
Morphine baby's final breath,
Ever smothered to your breast,
We are - silver...
During the breakdown, the chords are G and F (I think)
The last pre-chorus and chorus are as above, and end on Am.
That's it. A great song with a dark mood and rather cryptic lyrics - this
version will sound good on acoustic as well.
